THE boxing-mad Mellett family from Lower Bourne took part in an inter-club event at the ARD Training Camp in Grosvenor Road, Aldershot.

It comprised a series of eight skills bouts for boxing enthusiasts aged from 11 to 53, the 53-year-old being Leo Mellett (right in the photo) with wife Erica, daughter Kira and nephew Kieran Mellett.

There were four female bouts and four male, and the contest between Kira and opponent Daisy was voted best of the day. Both girls won the coveted Golden Gloves – the first females to win the trophy in this event.

Leo, Erica and Kira are all members of the ARD Training Camp, while Kieran has his own gym in Sutton.
