derby city boxing academy
Derby City Boxing Academy was founded in February 2009 by Midlands A.B.A. coach
Alex Neave. The club itself is in a prime location for the younger society with
its main aim being to promote boxing and provide a facility for those whom
participate, helping them become responsible citizens and respecting their local
community. Our goal is to provide fair guidance and support to all, regardless
of race, disability or gender. The club is affiliated to the Amateur Boxing
Association of England (A.B.A.), which has set guidelines that all club members
must follow. Amateur boxing is recognised worldwide as a contact sport, teaching
the techniques and skills required to become an Amateur boxer under qualified
instruction and supervision. Having inherited the desire to engage in combat
from the beginning of man-kind, boxing enables individuals to release built up
aggression, and provides a release from the every-day stresses life brings Derby
City Boxing Academy prides itself on the environment it operates which is based
on camaraderie and encouragement between all members. Our first priority is the
well-being of our boxers and their development as individuals. Our members come
from many different cultural backgrounds, both male and female and the club aims
to build self-esteem, confidence, improved communication skills, respect,
self-discipline and life skills.
