FORMER BRIGG SPORTSMAN TAKING TO THE RING IN AUSTRALIA

A former Brigg cricketer and Sir John Nelthorpe School pupil is to make his boxing debut on the other side of the world - in West Australia.
Simon Church, who grew up in Barnetby, emigrated Down Under many years ago and is currently in training for his first bout in the ring on March 28.
It's the latest stage in his return to fitness following an horrific leg injury sustained five years ago.
Simon says he's welcoming sponsorship from people in the Brigg area as he seeks to raise funds for the McGrath Breast Cancer Care Nurses.
"My aim now is to raise $1000 for The McGrath Foundation by asking 100 family, friends and acquaintances to kindly donate $10 each," he says. 
"The McGrath nurses provide invaluable support and care to women and men experiencing breast cancer."
Simon has been known as 'Chozzie' or 'Choz' to many of us for decades, but he has now acquired a new nickname as he prepares to make his boxing debut - The Grave Digger!
His bout will take place during a Gym Show in Kalamunda.
We are waiting for news about it being available to view live on Sky Box Office!
