BMAC's Virtual Lockdown Knockdown
With the club currently on hiatus due to the Coronavirus pandemic, we have been training together via video conference and so BMAC's Virtual Lockdown Knockdown was born. Follow along on our blog for how it came together and how we are preparing.
On 26th May, we will be getting together virtually to do as many punches as possible in 30 minutes. We think we can hit at least 50,000 punches.
We are hoping to raise money for three charities that are helping people through the challenges created by Coronavirus - the NHS charities together, the Trussell Trust and the Star Project.
Please help us support these worthwhile causes and together we can knock down the virus. You can sponsor us at uk.virginmoneygiving.com/Team/BMAC
