We welcome males and females of all shapes and sizes from ages 9-35 yrs. By teaching boxing skills we give an opportunity for today’s young people to have a positive focus in life. To motivate, encourage regular exercise and promote a healthy lifestyle and diet. Banbury Boxing Club opens a door for many people from all walks of the community to get involved in a fun, exciting club and make new friends.
Banbury Boxing Club was founded in September 2012 by brothers Ben and Tom Malcher, Mark Cooper and Dave Green. The club is proudly affiliated with England Boxing and is a club for competitive and recreational boxers.
We are a ‘not for profit’ charitable club run by volunteers and supported by donations, grants and member subscriptions. The main aim of Banbury Boxing Club is to offer affordable boxing classes in a safe environment for competitive boxers to train and compete in the sport of amateur boxing who might one day represent the Home Counties, England or even Team GB!

PLEASE NOTE: We are not a commercial gym we are a boxing club for people that want to participate in the sport of boxing. Boxing is a full contact combat sport. We cannot accept anyone who is actively participating in unlicensed boxing, ‘white collar’ or MMA.
Before you (or your child) start…
Boxing is a tough sport and there are no shortcuts to success, ask yourself if you can commit to training at least twice a week on a Tuesday & Thursday? If not, our boxing squad is NOT for you. You would be classed as a ‘recreational boxer’ and welcome to train on Mondays only.
Come along have a look during the week or join in on a Monday Beginners session to learn the basics, gain confidence and get fit one round at a time… We can assess your skills and progress you on to the Boxing Squad when ready.
You will not be expected to ‘spar’ as a beginner.
Call 07809 410692 if you have any questions…
BEGINNER & RECREATIONAL sessions are ‘pay as you go’. Pay cash on the night when you arrive before the lesson starts.
£5 Ages 8-17, £10 Ages 18+ (no joining fee)
BOXING SQUAD IF you progress on to our Boxing Squad the following costs apply:
THERE ARE NO HIDDEN LONG-TERM CONTRACTS!
What to bring:
All you need to bring to your first session is your training fee, a drink of water and some comfortable training clothes, we supply boxing gloves and skipping ropes to start with.
Before you begin training you will need to complete a quick form so our coaches are aware of any medical conditions and have an emergency contact. If you are under 17 a parent or guardian needs to give consent for you to participate and sign the form.
We encourage everyone to simply come along to have a look for yourself and/or join in. Beginners classes are on a Monday to decide if Banbury Boxing Club is for you before you have to register as a member.
