The positive impact boxing has had on our teams lives and the positive influence our team have witnessed it have on numerous other lives over the years has strongly fuelled our desire to establish a not-for-profit amateur boxing club, we hope to be affiliated with a governing body once the venue is secured.

This club is not just about competitive boxing. We will be creating a communal space where our members participate in community projects and where personal development and mutual support are the norm. 

Access to affordable venues has been a major barrier. Reduced venue costs mean more resources available to give back to our club members and the larger community. Boxing clubs, like the one we envision, have been proven to improve local economies, increase social engagement and have positive impacts on the youths learning abilities. 

We appeal to you all to help us in making our vision come true and help us acquire an affordable venue for our proposed community-based amateur boxing club. Not only will this participate in promoting a healthy lifestyle, but it will also have an integral role in fostering a culturally rich community.

Please sign this petition and show your support for a local boxing club that is so much more than just a sporting venue. Your signature can make a huge difference.
