South Oxhey ABC is a local, community-run boxing gym that has been opening its doors for people of all ages for over 30 years, and needs some community support.
Boxing is an incredible sport for physical and mental health, and anyone can give it a go. The South Oxhey ABC runs classes for juniors and seniors throughout the week, and the coaches provide their time, unpaid, so that people can develop in so many ways – and while the classes are reasonably priced anyway, the coaches provide extra time for those boxers looking to push themselves in the sport.
Maintaining the gym as a safe, healthy environment for all those who train there, the gym is appealing to the community it serves to improve the facilities. Namely, battling with the cold and wet months, the ensuing damp, and fixing the roof which will protect the gym in the future.
If you’ve ever tried (or thought about trying) boxing, you have a child who could use some discipline and fitness, or you simply care about the broader community and the diversity of sports and activities on offer, please consider donating to the club’s GoFundMe so that their good work can continue. Go and check out the club too – maybe it’s time to put some gloves on.
