Welcome to Cityboxer 321 Training

Hi champ you've arrived at the Cityboxer 321 training camp. Your amazing journey starts here

Boxing is a sport that lives on the edge of social acceptance, there are many that disapprove but there are equally as many who place ethics to one side in exchange for the undiluted energy of two combatants prepared to risk all for pride, standing & financial gain.

It's the oldest of extreme sports; no other experience can match the emotional journey of accepting a contest, training for a bout and then stepping through the ropes to take on your foe.

The rise and rise of white collar boxing in the US, Asia and the UK grew from a need for men and women to discover if they had the mettle to become a legend in the eyes of their peers

At the exclusive Cityboxer gym we give our members the opportunity to become that person.

Events at the historic Ring Boxing Club in Blackfriars are great local sporting occasions. To box there you have to join the Cityboxer club, train hard and show us you have the hunger to succeed.

We don't just let anyone box at 'The Ring'

 

Until now.....

“What is so great about it is that you are accountable to yourself and no one else” Cityboxer Member

Our shows are held next to the Gym at the famous Ring Boxing Club. We have run events from our venue for nearly 10 years and we know they are the best in London.

The atmosphere in our intimate 250 capacity venue is nothing short of electric, everyone is effectively ringside and with a partisan crowd cheering you on, you will understand what it feels like to stand tall in 'The Ring'

All the facilities you need are there (we provide kit, changing rooms, showers, warm up ring, pre / post medical, paramedics, doctor corner men etc). Your guests can also expect a top quality evening; with a bar, complimentary finger food, VIP area, BOSE sound system with robotic light rig & the bouts shown live on remote TV's so no one misses a single punch.

Afterward all boxers can relive the night (win or lose) with a complimentary DVD of the event, there are trophies / medals for all participants as well as a fighter of the night award.

There is more; once you have completed '321 Training camp' you can apply to box on our elite 'CityBoxer Black' league. This is beyond white collar boxing, our boxers compete for titles and to be ranked number 1 pound for pound boxer at the Ring (See our Cityboxer Black FB Page for more info).

From here we have had boxers go on to appear on British Eurosport ‘Queensbury League’ and another of our fighters is now a full time professional with 6 wins from 6 on his record

Questions How much does it cost

£180 (3 months membership to the gym). There is an obligation to sell a minimum 20 tickets priced at £30 per ticket when you appear on an event. If you sell 40 or more tickets we will reward you with £150 of personal training credit with us.

What's included in that Minimum 3 months full gym membership at the Cityboxer Gym in Blackfriars (unltd access to gym + unltd classes),

weekly 321 class, 1-2-1 training at members rates (£30 per session), allocated 321 trainer (who will manage your training progress).

I wish to raise money for Charity, how do I do that In the past boxers have set up a JG page and asked friends to donate, we will happily publicise your efforts when

promoting the show. What if I cannot take part in the event I signed up for

Boxing events are a serious obligation, there are considerable logistics in setting one up and not forgetting your fellow boxers who will have given considerable time, effort and money to take part. So once you have made the commitment (i.e. signed the contract) you are taking part (There are some strict medical exceptions which are outlined in the contract).

I’m not sure I can sell 20 tickets We help out with promoting the event but participants are asked to sell at least 20 tickets. If you do not sell all 20 tickets

you will be asked to make up any shortfall before you box. Will I get my preferred event

We have regular bouts throughout the year so we should be able to accommodate you. If we cannot get you on an event within the desired time frame you can continue to train with us until a slot become available at no extra expense

When are the events & how often will they be The boxing season runs from Sept 2012 – June 2013 and start again Sept 2013

Can I box again Indeed, you can join the club and enter a Cityboxer black event

What if I don't complete the training Same as question 4. If you sign for an event and you don't train that does not negate your commitment. Conversely if

you want to box but your trainer does not think you are ready yet we will place you on a later show at no additional cost. If you did not train and / or progress to the satisfaction of the trainer you must cover contracted ticket sales + additional fee of £180 to box again (worth adding this has never actually happened though).
