The Academy was founded in June 2008 by Peter Keogh. 

Peter has been involved with boxing for many years and was himself an amateur boxer in the late 70’s and early 80’s.  It was a dream to start his own boxing club and also to help the youth of today. 

The Academy name was chosen as it is a place where the young can learn not only boxing but also important life skills.  This is something that The Academy is actively working towards.  All of the team have been hand picked by Peter, you can meet the coaches on by Clicking Here.

It took 3 months of hard work using holidays, evenings and weekends to refurbish the gym.  The work carried out by Peter and his close friends from the construction world.  Too see a photo gallery of the work in progress please Click Here.
