UWE Boxing Club has something to offer for everyone. All levels of experience are welcome from complete beginner to advanced. We offer non-contact and competition training under two boxing coaches.
Welcome to UWE Boxing Club - A community of students dedicated to honing our skills and enhancing our fitness. Established in 2022, our club has quickly become a hub for students seeking the exhilaration of boxing, regardless of their experience level.
With four weekly sessions strategically spread across the week (with a fifth in the works), we make it easy for you to fit boxing into your busy student schedule. From sessions at the University's Centre for Sport to specialised training with a personal trainer at UWE’s Performance Gym, and even sessions at the renowned Bristol Boxing Gym, home to numerous national and world champions, we've got your boxing and fitness needs covered. All these sessions are included in your membership costs!
At the helm of our Monday sessions is none other than former British champion, Darren "Ammo" Hamilton. His expertise and guidance have already begun elevating the skills of our members, ensuring that whether you're a beginner or seasoned boxer, there's always room to grow.
We pride ourselves on offering competition-level training while providing the option for non-contact participation for those who prefer to focus on fitness without sparring.
Boxing is a great workout - expect to see significant improvements in your cardiovascular health, strength, and agility as you train with us.
Joining the club comes with a multitude of perks. Not only will you improve your physical fitness and boxing skills, but you'll also become part of a tight-knit community that supports and encourages one another. And let's not forget the mental health benefits - the discipline and focus required in boxing can provide a great release from the stresses of student life.
When it comes to competitions, we're no strangers to success. From white-collar events like Bristol Student Fight Night and Ultra White Collar Boxing to amateur competitions such as BUCS, we enter our fighters into a range of skill-level tournaments. Our track record speaks for itself, with notable achievements including but not limited to semi-finals in BUCS competitions, and massive success in Bristol Student Fight Night (including 2 huge TKO wins!)
Ready to lace up your gloves and join us in the ring? Whether you're looking to compete or just want to get in the best shape of your life, UWE Boxing Club welcomes you with open arms. Come be a part of something extraordinary - join us today!
