UNIQUE BOXING
Boxing Training
Now with the GB National Boxing Awards we will have the opportunity to pass on the benefits from amateur boxing training with out the hurting or being hurt and to provide a healthy channel for youthful energy and natural aggression.
The GB National Boxing Awards provides all participants the opportunity not only to learn a new activity/sport but also develop educationally, as the ABA National Boxing Awards gain credits towards the ABA of England National Boxing Educational Qualification (ASDAN Certificate of Personnel Effectiveness CoPE level 2 which is equilivant to GCSE Grade B)B).
The GB National Boxing Awards are very flexible and can be delivered in PE Curriculum time, the extended schools package (governments 5 hour offer) or is ideal for a School Holiday Programme.

Educational Program
PE Curriculum time, the extended schools package (governments 5 hour offer) or is ideal for a School Holiday Programme.
The qualification recognises and accredits the achievements and skills of people in that great Olympic sport, Amateur Boxing. For CoPE you need to achieve two things:
Firstly you must gain 12 credits through Boxing activities over 120 hours. This can be done by choosing from different options.
Secondly you show how you are developing certain key skills through Boxing. These are skills that are highly valued by employers and other educational establishments. They are: working together with others, improving your own learning, problem solving, discussion, research and giving a presentation.
This Boxing educational programme has been put together in partnership with the national awarding body ASDAN to give everybody a chance to gain a qualification in a sport they are taking part in or maybe even competing at.
