The Yorkshire International Show Press Launch

Tuesday 01 February 2011

The Yorkshire International Show Press Launch took place today at John and Clare Whitakers home in Huddersfield.  The launch drew interest from the BBC, ITV and Sky Sports and has already been televised on BBC this afternoon and will be shown on both BBC and ITV news this evening.  Sky Sports will transmit their report on Thursday evening (3rd February). 
 
The launch proved to be a great success and it is superb to get three major film crews reporting on our sport.  Our thanks go out to John Whitaker for making himself available and both John and Clare for the hospitality at their home. 
 
The Press Launch was also an opportunity to announce another Ambassador to the sport in Professional Boxer, Johnnie Nelson, who was WBO Cruiserweight World Champion for over six years.
