About the event
The first three Awards (Preliminary, Standard and Bronze) are all non-contact and can be used in clubs for new members and any non-specialist facility like community halls or school gyms. Non-contact parts of Awards can be taught by standalone GB boxing tutors, including school teachers, youth workers and development officers, as these cover boxing basics.
The remaining three Awards (Silver, Gold and Platinum) involve technique development in modified sparring and must be coached in a club with a ring and qualified boxing coach.  The Platinum Award takes the boxer into a ring with a skills bout, allowing the boxer to demonstrate the skills, fitness and ability they’ve learnt while completing all six of the GB National Boxing Awards.
The GB National Boxing Awards give students the opportunity to enjoy the benefits of training without hurting others or being hurt, providing a healthy channel for energy and aggression. All participants learn a new activity as well as gaining credits towards the Boxing Educational Qualification (the certificates can be used to support the following: GCSE, BTEC, ASDAN, Duke of Edinburgh Award and Princes Trust Award). The Awards are flexible and can be delivered in PE curriculum time, the extended schools package and as a school holiday programme.
