Coach's Words

What I expect from boxers I train!

AMBITION - The determination to learn and succeed.

THE WILL TO PROGRESS IN SKILLS AND FITNESS - The realisation that progression can only be achieved by regular attendance to the gym and responding to coaching

TO WORK HARD PHYSICALLY FOR ALL ROUND FITNESS - To show complete concentration when learning and practising skills - immediately reacting to correction, so 'grooving' skills until they become automatic.

THE KNOWLEDGE THAT SKILLS MUST BE LEARNT AND PRACTISED IN TRAINING BEFORE THEY CAN BE USED IN COMPETITON - Above all, it must be realised that boxing is a dangerous sport, and that being hit by punches, that could be avoided by practising, is unwise and painful!

Finally, the one word that brings success is COMMITMENT. I give it to my boxers and I expect my boxers to give it to themselves and to me.

You could say the two sparring partners are a mismatch but isn't it said that, "It's not the size of the man in the fight but the size of the fight in the man!"
