Hi all,
BCWC have decided to step away from the amateur competition scene as it no longer aligns with our core values.
Since our affiliation with England Boxing in 2022 we have built a strong reputation within the amateur boxing community.
During our time as an amateur boxing club we have achieved a great deal:
- developing multiple regional champions;
- saw an influx in club membership resulting in additional youth classes, adult classes and female only classes;
- recruited a dedicated team of volunteer England Boxing coaching staff & administrative support staff & parent volunteers.
We were also proud to have been granted permission by England Boxing to use our gym as an official venue for amateur boxing shows, allowing us to host successful events that brought the local boxing community together and gave young athletes a platform to showcase their talent.
Some of BCWC ABC’s notable boxing achievements include, but not limited to;
Dante Purville: Manchester Box Cup Champion May 2023
Dante Purville: Midlands Development camp September 2023
Dan O’Neil: Midlands Champion
NABGC October 2023
Dante Smart: Midlands Champion NABGC October 2023
Charlie Bradburn: Youth Midlands champion January 2024
Dante Smart: Junior Midlands Champion and National finalist March 2024
George Bate: Midlands Box Cup Champion and Best Boxer June 2024
Dan O’Neil: England School’s Squad Sparring June 2024
George Bate: England Junior Squad Sparing July 2024
Our coaching team and volunteers have dedicated countless hours to shaping not only skilled athletes but also respectful, disciplined young people.
Our focus is shifting back to our original ethos and purpose for setting up a boxing club back in 2021 by creating a safe, supportive space for children and adults - especially those who may be struggling with bullying, low confidence, or personal challenges. Rather than pushing for medals and matches, we aim to use boxing as a tool for personal development, self-discipline, and emotional resilience.
Our mission is to empower people through positive mentorship, fitness, and community—not just to build better boxers, but to help build stronger, more confident individuals. We want to create a welcoming, non-competitive environment where young people can feel safe, grow in confidence, learn self-discipline, and develop life skills. Our goal is to use the power of boxing to change lives—not just in the ring, but far beyond.
The BCWC ABC team wishes to thank all those involved at the Club including those individuals and businesses for their sponsorship of the boxers and club Daneways Ltd, topmarks ltd, Ajs, dudley Arms, Nigel Porter, dudley Rotary Club and many more as we could go on and on but especially our volunteer coaching staff, parents for their ongoing support and of course the amateur boxers for making us all so very proud each time you entered the ring on behalf of the Club.
So to anyone who wants to just enjoy boxing or get fit come and get involved ....
