The Boxing Club at Northumbria are a friendly and welcoming club catering for all abilities from absolute beginners right through to those who want to be on a competitive squad.
On top of all the fun you’ll have training, competing and learning the amazing sport that is Boxing, you’ll enjoy a variety of social events organised by the club making it the perfect opportunity to play the sport you love while having a great time and making new friends.
For our Boxing Club, "TRAIN" is split into three groups - Groups One and Two are for Beginner members and those looking to train without competitive bouts. The Competitive squad is for those who are interested in progessing further with their boxing technique and competition profile.
