HIT Factory capped the Goldfields Cup boxing tournament by winning the two main events on Sunday's card at the All Seasons Hotel in Bendigo.
Danny Taggert and Ezra White from the Golden Square-based Hit Factory boxing gym scored points victories in the last two contests on the 17-bout card.
Cup promoter and Hit Factory trainer Danniel Burton said the tournament was a raging success.
"It was a fantastic day," Burton said of the Victorian Amateur Boxing Association-sanctioned tournament.
"We had 12 Bendigo boxers on the card. For them to be able to fight in their home town and have plenty of support is what this tournament is all about.
"Next year we are planning to make the Goldfields Cup bigger and better."
Among the many highs was Tom Fitzgerald from Hit Factory being presented with the Best Boxer of the Day trophy.
Fitzgerald won a great battle with Stewart Fraser in the 63kg class.
The Best Junior boxer award went to Elias Awad.
The young boxer from the Brizzi Brothers gym beat Drew Wallis in the 66kg division.
California Gully-based Bendigo Amateur Boxing Club was represented by Jake Pfeiffer and Brad Morgan on the Goldfields Cup card.
In their corner were long-time trainer Pat Connolly and Olympic boxer Lynden Hosking.
Although beaten in their respective bouts, Pfeiffer by Sheldon Bourke and Morgan by Josh Heydon, both will have gained a lot from the experience.
The Goldfields Cup included several exhibiton bouts.
