This year six young fighters from Evolution Martial Arts in Boston Lincolnshire have been selected to represent their country at the upcoming WAKO Kickboxing Junior and Cadet World Championships which will be held in Venice, Italy. These youngsters are Mackenzie Warrant, 12, Talon Chambers, 12, Zac Baldry, 15, Jake Peppercorn, 17, Nesta Baxter, 18 and Chelsea Leggatt, 18.

All six of the competitors have worked extremely hard to get to this stage after impressing the National GB Squad and selectors, however the work only starts now as they look to be at the top of their game for the championships to be able to achieve their goals.

Kickboxing is a completely self-funded sport with the families of these youngsters having to pay a large sum of money to get them to this level without even thinking of the funds they have to find for them to attend Italy. Therefore we hope that you will be generous in supporting our team to hopefully help to ease the financial stress on some of the families and to help in covering the cost of transport etc.

Let's give these youngsters the best support in every way we can ahead of the World Championships! All donations however large or small will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
