About Us

Welcome To Derrylin Boxing Club

 

Derrylin Boxing Club is a voluntary not-for-profit group and was formed in July 2008. The club provides opportunities for young people to participate in sport & recreation (and primarily the sport of boxing), and we also provide keep fit programmes for adults and mature persons. Our aim is to provide a hub for the whole community to come together at a neutral venue and participate in sport and physical activities in a social, friendly and inclusive way .

* “Our mission is:

·                     To provide opportunities to the children, young adults and adults in the community, regardless of gender, race, religion, ethnicity, orientation, physical disability or socio-economic background, to participate in Boxing and Physical Training in a positive social and mentoring environment.  

·                     To train members to reach their potential and achieve their goals within the sport of boxing.

·                     To develop the self-esteem, self-discipline and social/interpersonal skills of our members, so they can incorporate these skills in a positive fashion into every aspect of their lives.

·                     To provide an outlet for adults (including over 35’s) to participate in boxing training for keep-fit/health and recreational purposes.

·                     To develop the club to become the hub for bringing the community together and to develop championship level boxers that in turn become local sport stars and role models to inspire other youngsters in the community to reach their potential (sporting/artistic/educational or otherwise).
