Finchley & District ABC have now produced 17 champions in the last six months, which is unprecedented in the club's history.
And some of the club's rising stars will make up an 18-man team to visit Las Vegas, the boxing capital of the world, later this year.
The Finchley boxers will take on their American counterparts in a massive show at the famous Hard Rock Hotel on September 11 to commemorate the New York Twin Towers disaster.
Among the latest Finchley successes was Jim Duffy, who won his second North West Divisional Championship with a convincing points win over Colin Felix. Duffy will now fight for his second London title.
Joining him at the London ABA Championships will be reigning national ABA super-heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua.
Meanwhile, Adam Chaima won the best contest of his career, defeating national schoolboy champion Conner McKinnon in West Ham.
Club colleague Mason Smith also gained a fine win over Eli Saunders in Southampton.
