Annual Dinner
Time To Unwind and Celebrate
As a moment to reflect on the success of the year, our members come together for the Annual Dinner. It is a time to dress-up and celebrate as well as unwind and socialise in the final months of the year.
​
Leading into the event members have the opportunity to vote for Member of the Year, someone who has reflected the values of the club and made significant contributions throughout the year. On the night the votes will be finalised and the shield awarded.

Sweet Science Series
Learn the secret formula of the Sweet Science
A recent addition to our social calendar has been the Sweet Science Series. It is an opportunity for members to share their knowledge and passion for boxing in a relaxed forum.
At each event we have several featured speakers elaborating on topics close to their heart in the world of boxing from fighting styles to specific matches, and from general rules to helpful training tips.
Discussion is encouraged throughout each segment as these workshop evenings are intended to be an opportunity to develop your fight I.Q.
