Review of the year

Another busy year for the club as we continued to build on the strong foundations of community, recreational and competition boxing.

We are first and foremost a community club. Throughout the 24-25 season the Fightback Club epitomised this. The class, delivering for those suffering the effects of Parkinson's Disease, continued to grow and develop into its own community that support and encourage each other and has the support of Parkinsons UK, local health providers and other community organisations.

In the 2023-24 season we introduced Recreational Boxing. Across Junior and Senior Recreational Boxing classes we continued to see a growth in engagement with a mix of those that want to train occasionally, in a non contact environment, through to those that want to learn the fundamentals as a pathway to competition. As we closed the 2024-25 season we held an assessment and invited a number of senior boxers to join the competition boxing and compete for the club.

Cadets, for ages 8-11, had varying numbers through the season. Reducing to one class per week has proven positive with strong attendance and effort across the group.

With Cadets, Junior Recreational and Senior Recreational we now cater for a wider age group proving pathways to competition. This level of engagement was welcomed and appreciated by Dan Price, Police & f h h h h d h l b l Our competition boxing (for those that train to compete as England Boxing licensed boxers) had a busy season. We held two shows during the year - a skills show in November at our Station Yard home and a February show held at the Victoria Club in our community. In addition to boxing on other club shows, with 73 contests throughout the season, we also celebrated two North West Regional Champions for the club along with Champions at the Women's Winter Boxcup and the Manchester Boxcup.

Coaching, and coach development, continued to be a priority. In 2024-25 we welcomed new coaches to the club and funded a number of our current boxers to complete their Level One coaching qualification with England Boxing
