I’ve been nominated for The Youth Impact Award due to my work in the community and coaching kids, something I have loved doing now for over 25 years.

I’ve also be recognised for the Scholarship Program I set up 2-3 years ago now where I ask local businesses to support a local teenager for their gym fees for a year and we provide them with ongoing training and mentoring.

We have also run an anti-bullying campaign were we offer ONE MONTH FREE to children suffering at the hands of bullies, a project that we have had great success stories from.

I feel very honoured to have been nominated as I just get on with it and have funded everything myself, no grants, no funding, no CIC, no help from anybody in government in a position to help, all completely self funded.

I’m fortunate to have an amazing team behind me at UTC and the next generation of fighters, athletes and even coaches all coming through to take the gym to the next level.

There is still time to vote if you haven’t already and be be bothered, lol, takes less than two minutes;

We are putting on an other MMA & Sub Only Show with some K1 fights too at The Layton Institute in Blackpool on October 10th, it is a fantastic little venue and it always creates a great atmosphere on fight night.

This is a Grass roots event as the aim of the show is aimed at novice level MMA Guys to get some experience before moving up to the big shows, we are running it like a fancy Interclub, but with keeping to the A-C Class rules and with winners, so fighters can get experience making weight and fighting front of people.

We are keeping the ticket price low and giving fighters £5 per ticket if they sell 10 tickets, we’ve got quite a few guys needing matches in MMA, K1 and Sub Only so if you have anyone for the show or would like to compete please get in touch.

Thank you
Scot

Really proud to have been nominated for an award, it’s for Yourh Impact Award due to the work I’ve done with the years of coaching the kids at UTC Blackpool and scholarships apparently, I had no idea so it was a nice surprise.

If you could take 2-3 minutes to vote for me and write a line or two about why you’re voting or something nice and positive it would be appreciated;

This award recognises an individual, organisation or service that has made a genuine and positive difference to the lives of children and young people across the Fylde Coast. We are looking for those who provide support, opportunities, encouragement, guidance or experiences that help young people
