Why We Need Amateur Boxing Participation To Grow

The philosophy is: We love to win and hate to lose, so we work hard to win. Whether we win or lose, we practice sportsmanship, not bragging about victory nor blaming for defeat.We measure success not just by bouts won and championships, but also by the development of character and caring behavior.

The training involved in boxing and opportunities to engage in sponsored boxing events itself has great potential for the promotion of personal growth and prevention of crime among at-risk young people.

Training requires strict self-discipline and obedience to the instructions and authority of coaches. There is a sense of accomplishment and improvement of self-esteem simply through an improvement in physical conditioning.

Effective anger management is a vital part of training - one learns to control emotions and to channel them productively in order to achieve personal goals. Once a young person gets involved in boxing events, there is a strong reinforcement of the rewards of obeying the rules and the consequences for not obeying the rules. You must obey the referee's instructions and compete according to the rules. If you do, you have the best chance to win. If you disobey instructions and rules, you lose.

The same is true in life. But in feedback in the sport of boxing is immediate and effective.
