Boxing charity teams up with Boxercise to help disadvantaged (original) (raw)

Latest news

Boxing Futures is partnering training provider Boxercise to help socially disadvantaged young people access the sport so they can better their lives.

Boxing Futures, a registered charity, works with 16-25 year olds in communities who are socially disadvantaged, at risk of offending or already caught up in the criminal justice system.

The tie-up means Boxing Futures staff will be able to gain an internationally recognised qualification through the Boxercise instructor course. Boxing Futures will also be using the Boxercise Award Scheme as the framework to teach young people.

The two organisations said the partnership will allow both organisations to increase the reach, effectiveness and impact they are able to have on the lives of young people who often feel ignored and marginalised, and who want a brighter future.

Since its launch in 1992, Boxercise is now recognised as the world leader in non-contact boxing fitness. It runs hundreds of training courses a year, teaching fitness instructors, teachers and personal training instructors.
