You Can Do Sport Boxing Academy is to host a training session with former professional boxer and world champion kickboxer Lee Swaby at Carl Greaves’ Newark gym.
The session will be on Saturday, 10am to noon, and is open to all male and female students from 15 to 18.
The day offers an opportunity for students to meet the You Can Do Sport team, see the facilities available at the state-of-the-art gym and join in the session with Swaby.
Swaby is a former two-time world kickboxing champion who was also a two-time British Londsdale belt challenger in the cruiserweight division.
Swaby challenged for the Commonwealth cruiserweight title and became the Midlands area heavyweight champion.
He fought in some epic battles against renowned fighters Matt Skelton, Derek Chisorea, and WBC world champion Tyson Fury.
The You Can Do Sport Academy said that students and their families were welcome to attend the event.
The academy recently hosted a friendly football game at the YMCA which was a chance for students to meet the team and view the facilities.
The game saw both male and female students compete in a fun atmosphere and featured You Can Do Sport head football coach — former England international and Forest player Gary Charles.
