As part of our association with the Celtic Championship Challenge and our long-serving partners Sandee, we are delighted to offer another exclusive opportunity to the up and coming youngsters on the U.K. Muay Thai circuit. Throughout the year the Celtic Championships host numerous high quality events offering the younger generation of emerging UK fighters regular opportunities to test their skills.
On May 3rd the annual WKA British Championships will take place under the Sandee and Celtic banner, where young fighters from around the U.K. & Celtic nations will fight in knockout tournaments for the gold medal positions and a possible place in the newly formed Sandee Academy. As already announced, the standout performer on this day will be inducted into the Sandee academy with future training and fighting opportunities abroad on the horizon.
In addition to this, The Main Event and Celtic team will handpick the ten most outstanding fighters from the past 12 months and invite them, along with a parent, to The Main Event on June 7th, where they will able to experience the ins and outs of a large scale promotion and get a feel for how things work.
We believe in looking after the talented youngsters of today and offering them opportunities to experience the bigger events in order to help prepare them for when they themselves are the headlining names in our sport. Already we have several promising 16-18 year olds matched on the show and we are committed to continuing this trend and showcasing these fighters on a stage where they have previously had very limited opportunities.
