Vaughan
Coach
I'm currently qualified for a level 1 England boxing coach, and I'm coaching kids and junior classes for the Grey Ranks ABC. "I started my combat sports journey nearly 20 years ago in Thai boxing with Tom Ash at King Tiger Thai in Weymouth. I competed in Thai boxing inter-club matches nationwide. I'm also passionate about the mental health boxing group I founded, where I believe the skills, discipline, and passion from boxing can positively impact life. I'm proud to be a part of Grey Ranks, a great team doing important work."
Anthony Spence
Coach
Hi, my name is Anthony Spence and I'm currently a level 1 boxing coach at the Grey Ranks Boxing Club in Weymouth.
I started my journey with the Grey Ranks roughly 6 months after its inception.
I joined to get fit and healthy and to lose weight because I was dangerously overweight.
Since joining the club, I lost 60KG of weight and fell in love with Boxing and the Grey Ranks.
My passion now is helping and nurturing other young people and adults grow and live healthy positive lives through Boxing.
