A team of professional boxers, led by former world champion Anthony Crolla, enjoyed a warm-weather training camp with a difference – thanks to support from ActivTrades.
The leading online trading broker has joined forces with Project Boxing – a company co-founded by Crolla – enabling the fighters to travel to Portugal to take advantage of outstanding facilities, along with the sunny weather.
The party included European champion Rhiannon Dixon, James Moorcroft, Bobby Faulkner, and William Crolla – younger brother of Manchester legend Anthony.
Along with intensive training – both outdoors and at the Algarve Fight Academy – the fighters engaged with the local community, treating young people from Vilamoura to coaching and mentoring sessions.
There was also a little much-needed down-time, with the team taking part in an ActivTrades padel tournament at The Campus in Quinta do Lago.
