\n It was a major accolade for the Carlisle boxer, and as she took her belts back to Border City ABC on Monday, the club\u2019s coach Ian Archibald said her success can show other young boxers the way.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cWe\u2019ve got quite a lot of female boxers in the club now, and they all look up to Brodie,\u201d he said.\n<\/p>\n

\n \u201cI don\u2019t think we\u2019ve ever had a woman from Carlisle winning the national elite title like this.\n<\/p>\n
\n \u201cIt\u2019s a great story for the area and for women\u2019s boxing in the area.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\n Stephenson\u2019s success means she will now box for England in this year\u2019s Four Nations tournament.\n<\/p>\n
\n She has also been invited to the Great Britain Boxing headquarters in Sheffield for assessment.\n<\/p>\n
