He takes on Myles Vale from Eastside, Birmingham in a 69kg contest.Oxford’s captain, lightweight James Kerr battles it out with VJ Shields (Milton Keynes) in a 59kg bout, while featherweight Isra Hale takes on Emma Hanselman (Emeralds ABC, Chippenham) in a 59kg contest.
Coach Greg Kilkenny expects Mace’s bout to be exciting.
“He’s our best boy at OUABC and has a tough competitor from Birmingham coming down,” he said.
“Some of these boys only started boxing in October, it’s truly remarkable the work our coaches put in. The boys are looking sharp.”
Profits from the Town v Gown will go towards Oxford University boxing club’s Outreach programme.

HM Submarine Churchill visit to Tromso 1985

HMS Churchill was the first of three Churchill-class nuclear fleet submarines that served with the Royal Navy.
Churchill was chosen to trial the first full-size submarine propulsor. Trials of a high-speed unit were followed by further trials with a low-speed unit, and these were successful enough for the same propulsion to be fitted in the rest of the class.Later British submarine classes also featured the pump jet, although first-of-class vessels Swiftsure and Trafalgar were fitted with propellers at build.
