Welcome to Huyton Boxing Club, in the first week of opening in September 2002 up to 60 boys and girls had joined the beginner’s section, with about 20 members in the more advanced sessions.

Keep fitters train there during the day while women attend Boxercise classes of an evening. The under 10s group train on Sunday mornings. School groups also use the gym.

All coaching is undertaken by qualified coaches who are trained and have been screened for their suitability for working with young people.

Huyton ABC has scooped the coveted Clubmark award to become one of just six of 822 registered boxing clubs in the country to be granted such status. Clubmark is the only national cross sports quality accreditation scheme of its kind and is a great achievement for Huyton ABC.

With an emphasis on youth development, Clubmark was introduced in 2002 by Sport England to recognise the commitment made by sports clubs to produce high quality, welcoming environments for young participants. Accreditation is awarded to clubs that comply with minimum operating standards in four key areas: duty of care and child protection; the playing programme; sports equity and ethics, club management.
