NIAGARA FALLS BOXING CLUB 2008 - 2009

ABOUT US


Niagara Falls Boxing Club has been a not for profit sport club in Niagara since 1978. Established by John Degazio, it began at the old Kimberly Clarke Building, moving to Queen and Ontario Street, and is presently at Niagara Industrial Mall.

    The club is dedicated to the youth of our community, however members range from 11 years of age to over 40. All members have a chance to participate in a sport that can lead to Provincial, Canadian and International tournaments. Every effort is made to ensure all members are able to participate, regardless of financial situations. The majority of funding for the club is raised by weekly bingos at Delta Monte Carlo. If you would like to make a donation to NFBC or if you would like to sponser a boxer at NFBC visit the contacts page for more information.


NFBC has helped cultivate professional boxing careers, if there is exceptional talent and the desire to succeed is present in an individual. The staff at NFBC has experience in all aspects of managing and training successful professional boxers.



Our club has both male and females working together, teaching not only the sport, but what it is to be a member of a team. In our group, it's important for our members to feel that they really belong to something. Our members are supported not only by the coaching and training staff but by other team members as well.




NFBC gets involved in the community on a regular basis. We have been a part of Run For the Grapes, Walk for Hospice Niagara, Skylon Stair Climb for Cancer and new this year The Candy Cane Lane 5km for Project S.H.A.R.E. We encourage all members to participate along with their family and friends. The club also works with the local high schools and community groups. We invite their physical education department to participate in classes to experience the health benefits of boxing. NFBC makes an effort to educate members and parents/guardians the importance of healthy living in and out of the gym. We welcome a nutritionist into the gym to offer advice on healthy eating for athletes and to answer any questions about healthy eating in a weighted sport. We are also pleased to have a professional A.R.T. therapist at our disposal to advise on proper stretching and maintenance exercises for our athletes. 
 

Niagara Falls Boxing Club is one of the most active clubs in the Niagara Region. The coaching and training staff will travel to any show or tournament that our boxers can compete in. NFBC is a regular participant in the Ringside Tournament in Kansas City, MO and the Coupe Du Quebec in Longueuil, P.Q. All boxers that qualify for these tournaments are encouraged to train hard to earn a spot on these traveling teams. All trips have proven to be positive and are great team building experiences for all involved.
