CIRENCESTER ABC’s Ethan Frayling (64kg) travelled to Banbury with coach Tom Varey where he was in action against Elliot Durbin, from Banbury ABC, the 16-year-old Frayling winning a split decision.

On the same day, Cirencester travelled to Bristol where Johnny Varey was in action in the Junior and Cadets championships.

Fighting for the Western Counties title in the 44-46kg weight category against Devonport’s Ryan Tattershall, Varey overcame having to lose weight on the day to box superbly in all three rounds, claiming his third Western Counties title in a row.
