Imagine if your child was boxing; would you be with the match given? To ensure fair matches, the following steps must be taken. Assessment All boxers must be assessed across the 8 weeks training period; this assessment involves: Regularly checking weights (weeks 1,4 & 8) Skill assessment: Fitness assessment Sparring appraisal: All paperwork compiled through training must be retained so that we can explain matches if required to do so, scoring sheets etc; Matching Following this assessment; these processes must be used by all UWCB gyms/trainers when matching bouts: Fighters ideally matched within 3 kilos: kilos is the target maximum weight difference; however: It is important to remember this is a guide and in white collar boxing there can regularly be bigger weight differences than 7kg and the https Ilcoronersworcestershire icasework comlservletlservlets appPopup?auth-4o&db-R4wf8TQlcUorXBq1DFxQrNNVLsb4Koye&st-CASES&r. 3/5 they ' key happy

If matches fall outside a 7kg weight difference must be referred to HQ for approval and explained on the fight order: Its better to have a fair match with larger than 7kg weight difference than have a stand in Anyone boxing over 50 years old MUST be discussed with HQ and their match approved. Bouts over 95kg can have a larger weight difference: Weights should be considered with scores to ensure matches are fair: Experience must be carefully considered; if someone has boxed or had combat sports experience before take care when matching them with a first timer. Whilst ability may appear to be the same the first timer may be more affected by the 'occasion', ensure that this is considered_ Boxer Ability Scoring Method To standardise how we assess participants ability throughout the training programme; the following scoring method should be used at training sessions ad recorded against the participants name on the register. These scores may fluctuate as each participant progresses through their training and are vital for matching participants fairly for the final event participant's final scores must be recorded against their name and weight in the fight order for the event: Scores should be used in conjunction with weighs to ensure matches are fair. You can also use 1+ / 3-etc This is if you feel participants sit between whole scores_ Complete novice Slightly advanced Good good Close to amateur standard Stand In Boxers These should be avoided and only realistically used if there is an odd number of boxers REMEMBER: The boxers have signed up to raise money for charity, they should have a fair bout and not be embarrassed by a stand in boxer. Stand in's must be appropriately matched, you cannot simply get a similar weight as their ability may be drastically different! Event coordinator MUST brief the stand-in boxers and ensure they 'look after' the opponent in case there is a ability discrepancy (this happen if the boxer 'freezes' as its their first bout and the stand-in is more comfortable ) We should let the participant know there will be a stand in as soon as possible.

Dear Mr Reid,

Thank you for your correspondence of 7 June, to the former Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, , enclosing a copy of the Reg. 28 Prevention of Future Deaths Report, following the inquest of Dominic Mark Chapman. I am responding as the Minister for Sport, Media, Civil Society and Youth.

I must apologise for the delay in providing you with a substantive response. As you will appreciate, at the time of your report, the then Prime Minister had announced a General Election and the Government had entered a period of pre-election sensitivity.

I was sincerely sorry to hear about this tragic incident and my deepest sympathies are with the family and friends of Mr Chapman.

The safety and wellbeing of everyone taking part in sport is absolutely paramount. There will always be risks associated with participating in contact sports, but it is important that robust measures are in place to reduce the risk of major injuries and health issues. It is the responsibility of individual boxing event organisers to ensure that they protect the safety and wellbeing of their participants.

The Government, Sport England (our arm's-length body for community sport), and the governing bodies for boxing, all strongly urge all white collar boxing event organisers to work with the sport’s governing bodies to ensure that robust competition standards are in place to protect the safety of those who take part. However, as with any private sports organisation, there is no obligation for white collar boxing event organisers to affiliate with a governing body.

In light of safety concerns, such as those highlighted by this tragic case, the Department for Culture, Media and Sport’s officials have met with the boxing authorities, the Local Government Association and the Home Office (HO) to explore possible options to reduce the risks around white collar boxing.

White collar boxing events take place in venues licensed by local authorities, who undertake due diligence of events as part of the licensing process. However, the Licensing Act 2003 (legislation owned by HO) states that boxing bouts held at venues with audiences under 1,000 in normal hours do not need to be licensed by the relevant local authority.

I can confirm that my officials are now preparing a targeted consultation of key stakeholders, about possible amendments to the statutory guidance, which will be conducted within the next six months.

Thank you again for your important contribution to this crucial issue. We remain committed to working with the sports sector to help ensure the safety of all participants in sport.
