An Edinburgh tiling instructor is among the athletes to compete at the Commonwealth Games 2022.
26-year-old Matthew McHale will be leaving behind the tiles at his Edinburgh based Trades Training School to compete with Team Scotland at this year’s Commonwealth Games in Birmingham. The Bantamweight boxer has had all of his spare time taken up with training for the event at Lochend Gym in the capital.
Under the careful watch of head coach Terry McCormack, McHale’s career has recently taken off as he made his way into the Boxing Scotland’s Team as well as into the European Championships this May. The boxer is due to make his debut on Tuesday, August 2.
