Hi all

just wanted to ask a quick question

Im looking to join a boxing club in dublin

I have done a bit of boxing as a teenager and
would like to get back into it
im still reasonably fit but i heard most clubs wouldnt accept someone my age

Is there any places anyone could recommend ?

Is there not a novice section? like if you have less than 5 fights you have to face someone with less than 5 also?

MBC

Yeah most clubs would take you. Where are you from and we will try recommend the best club in your area.

Yeah the Novices are for people who are aged 17+ and have 5 fights or less at time of weigh in.

I'm involved with a club out in Monkstown. At the moment we have quite a few over 18's beginners. Your more than welcome to come out some night for a session.
We train on Mondays, Wednesdays & Thursdays from 7pm to about 8.30/9pm.
Subs are just €2 per night.

More central to town is Dublin Docklands, Corinthians, St. Saviours & that club in smithfield aswell.........all the details are in the stickies at the top the page.
