The IBA Youth World Championships has come to a close with the Australian boxing team departing Spain with so much experience and knowledge!

Congratulations Team Boxing Australia. A fantastic and inspiring performance by each of you. This is a testament to your work ethic and ability to perform competitively on the International stage.

Thank you to Jamie Pittman, Mark Evans, Jeremy Udovich and Jessica Cashman for your support and dedication to Australian boxing.

Team Boxing Australia

The 2022 Elite Australian Boxing Championships was nothing short of amazing. 42 coaches, 97 athletes over 20 weight divisions, plus 11 referee and judges descended on the Dom Polski Centre, Adelaide from 16-19 November 2022 for four days of competition. 

A very special thank you to Boxing South Australia, the entire referee and judges crew, and all the volunteers who helped to organise and run this event. Without your efforts, support and commitment, these events would not be possible.

The best bout of the competition was the close fought Elite Women 60kg final between Danielle Scanlon from NSW and Ali Lai-Carlyle from VIC. The bout was action packed from start to finish with Danielle winning by a very close split decision.

Boxing Australia would appreciate your feedback on this event as we seek to make continuous improvements. Please share your feedback via 2022 Elite Australian Boxing Championships Feedback Survey | Boxing Australia

Congratulations to all the athletes and Member Associations who won medals and trophies.
