Our Story
Founded in 2008 by Curtis McLardie, Mike Dillon, and Nigel Travis who were all operational firefighters at Moss Side Fire Station. Our club was born from a shared vision: to connect with the local community, raise aspirations, and create positive futures. With the support of other dedicated fire service personnel, they committed their time and energy to building a boxing club that empowers individuals and strengthens the community.
At Moss Side Fire Station Boxing Club, success isn’t just measured by wins and losses in the ring. We aim to help young people develop the qualities we value: respect, discipline, and courage. These principles guide everything we do, as we strive to be role models and mentors, inspiring our members to become leaders and positive influences within the wider community.
We measure success through stories of growth:
– Children who once struggled to attend school now thriving.
– Individuals who lacked confidence now securing meaningful employment.
– All the way to make elite level performance in Boxing
Every punch thrown, every round boxed, is a step toward building stronger futures. Our club continues to inspire, providing opportunities for personal growth, discipline, and success within our community.
RESPECT DISCIPLINE COURAGE
