Triple triumph: Three military boxers celebrate gold medal success at 2025 Women's Winter Box Cup

Three military boxers have won gold medals at the 2025 Women's Winter Box Cup at Leigh Sports Village.

The RAF's Lily Surridge secured the first major success of her amateur career with two impressive performances during the event.

In the 57kg semi-final, she comfortably beat Merseyside & Cheshire's Lexxie Beattie before taking on Beartown ABC's Rugby Downin in the final.

Once again, Surridge was in unstoppable form as she didn't put a foot wrong to win the gold medal.

Elsewhere, Army duo Terri Stuart and Felicity Johnstone also triumphed to take home gold medals in their respective finals.

Stuart, who has boxed internationally in the past, beat Truro ABC's Zehra Gozen while Johnstone won against Holmes Chapel BC's Erin Tynan.

Army trio Erin Martin, Kasharna Williams and Lucy Kisielewska all lost at the semi-final stage, meaning they walked away with bronze medals, as did the RAF's Jennifer Sabine.
