Is Boxing Safe?
Excellent question! And one that any self-respecting parent should definitely ask. It is important to us that you understand how much we are concerned about the safety of your child.Amateur boxing ranks 71st among amateur sports for injuries. Sports such as wrestling, diving, gymnastics, and even badminton are ranked above it. There are countless precautions and safety measures taken at every level to protect the athlete.Amateur boxing is NOT about knocking your opponent out! In comparison to professional boxing, the objective and even the scoring system are entirely different. Amateur boxing is scored on a system where each technically correct punch is worth one point. A good jab scores the same as a hard right hand. A knockdown scores only for the punch or punches that lead to it. The focus of each boxer is on scoring as many cumulative points as possible, not on taking unnecessary punches in order to deliver one hard punch.
Amateur boxing is possibly the most regulated and supervised sport of any amateur competition. It requires weigh-ins and physicals before each match. Another physical exam is done after each match. Another physical exam is done after each bout. Also, the equipment used in competition must meet rigorous specifications set down by USA/Boxing. All boxers are required to wear protective equipment including gloves, headgear, mouthpieces, groin protectors, and in the event of a female bout, chest protectors. Even the padding in the rings have to meet defined specifications.As you can see, amateur boxing takes great steps to insure that when your child is here, we are doing everything possible to protect them.

I feed the flame and it becomes a fire.
I feed the fire and it becomes a roaring blaze."
