Lee Bartley (birth year 2006, 41.5 kilos) boxed very well to achieve his maiden victory by a unanimous points decision in his semi-final against Billy Dyfield (Priory Park) on Saturday.

He went on to the final the following day and this time lost by a unanimous decision, albeit a close one, against John Nash (New Bays).
