Hampshire Constabulary and the Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service will once again square up in an intense boxing match at Cowes Yacht Haven this October.
Tickets are now on sale for the thrilling night of boxing and entertainment on 15th October.
The event is expected to raise £15,000 for chosen charities The Martin Poynter Trust, Kissy Puppy – The Sophie Rolf Trust, The Joe Ellis Trust and Isle of Wight boxing clubs.
The Haven Events Centre will be packed with over 800 people for an adrenaline filled night of sporting entertainment with an electric atmosphere. The bar will open and the music will be pumping around the arena.
30 participants from the police and fire have already signed up and they will undergo intensive training as they prepare to complete the ultimate personal challenge.
Ian Gregory, operations manager at Cowes Yacht Haven said:
“This is one of the most thrilling and entertaining nights on the calendar for the Isle of Wight and we look forward to hosting it every year. Not only is it amazing to see the dedicated police officers and firefighters get up in the ring, but it also raises a huge amount of money for charity every year. As soon as we get the ring into the Haven Events Centre you can feel the atmosphere change. Make sure to buy your tickets soon!”
Dave Hunt, event organiser, said:
“This is set to be an amazing night, which would not have been possible without the support from our sponsors Cowes Yacht Haven, Blue Line Security Management and Concept Electrical. It will be a fantastic event, watching devoted fire fighters and police officers return to the ring. Tickets are selling fast, don’t miss out.”
Tickets have now been released, at a cost of £17 for standard and £30 for VIP, through the Blue Light Fight Night website or via Cowes Yacht Haven’s reception. Doors will open at 18:00 and the dress code is smart casual.
