Could you be the next Olympic champion?

University College Birmingham is launching the UCB Boxing Academy for 16 –18 year olds in September 2015.

Prospective students are invited to an open evening on Wednesday 26 November, 6pm - 8pm at The Maltings in Granville Street, Birmingham, B1 1SB.

As part of the Boxing Academy students will receive regular training with a GB accredited boxing coach, access to strength and conditioning support, and sport therapy/rehab in addition to gaining a qualification.

UCB’s Boxing Academy is the only one of its type in the West Midlands, offering students an excellent opportunity to pursue boxing whilst gaining a qualification.

Boxers will be enrolled on a Level 3 sports course to be part of the academy, but must commit to three training sessions a week, as well as their own club training. The Academy is open to male and female boxers.

If you wish to attend the open evening please book your place using our online form here.

We look forward to seeing you there!
