Moorside school in North Halifax today welcomed unbeaten Halifax professional boxers, Liam Walsh and Scott Gladwin for a charity fundraiser for Marie Curie. Both boxers live in North Halifax and put their unbeaten records on the line when they fight at North Bridge leisure centre on Saturday April 14. The kids were really excited about todays event and after a pad demonstration involving Liam and Scott the kids were invited to do pad work and then spar with the pro's. The pep talk from Liam about discipline and dedication in the sport of boxing was very well recieved and maybe, we may have some future champions in the making.
As a school governor and local Councillor, it was great to see Liam and Scott give their time back to the community and i think they had as good a time as the children, so thanks to the two of them for taking time out of their training to give a big boost to Moorside.
