Cowdenbeath is set to welcome competitors from all over this weekend as it prepares to host a major boxing competition.
Hundreds of entries were received by Beath Boxing Club for its second Box Cup event, which will take place over Saturday and Sunday.
It will be held at Beath High School and follows on from a successful inaugural tournament held 12 months ago.
That brought more than 300 young boxers, from 71 clubs, together, including 10 from Beath, who expressed hope it would become an annual fixture on their calendar.
This year has produced another bumper entry list, and will see three rings operating across the two days, compared to the two which were running last year.
Club founder and head coach, Jon-Paul Hynd, commented: "We've had entries for that from Northern Ireland, the Republic, England, Jersey.
"We've had enquiries from America, enquiries from Nepal, France, Germany, so it's got a real international feel.
"It's a big thing to be bringing to the area again.
"We did it last year and I think we had something like 300 boxers last year, so, it's grown from last year.
"There were two rings in operation last year, there's three rings this year. It's just grown into a bigger and better thing.
"Last year was purely development boxers, but, this year, we've included open class boxers as well, all separated into their own groups, so they'll only box people with the same level of experience as them."
Hynd, who is the current president of the eastern district for Boxing Scotland, has revealed that Ireland are bringing a national team to the event.
"It's been incredible," he said of the interest in the Box Cup.
"I've been doing a lot of work in my role as president of the eastern district now, so, that's taken me a bit further afield with enabling me to broaden the guys' horizons.
"I've got a good relationship with the president of Irish boxing now, and we've been across visiting them a couple of times.
"We want everyone, not just our own, but kids from across the country, and across Europe, really, to get the best experience they possibly can.
"It'll help them all with their development. It's not just about what goes on in our gym. It's about helping everybody.
"It's a community.
"You want 50-50 contests, and you want every kid coming out of there having given it their best, enjoying themselves in front of their friends and family, and giving them a platform to push on to bigger and better things in the future."
