 | Boxing is a
solution to the violence of
fighting.

| In order to be a USA
amateur boxer you must be at least 8 years old.
top
|
| You may be an amateur boxer through the age of
32; after 32 if you meet certain USA boxing rules
you may be an amateur boxer
in the Masters
Division, which is for people age 33 and older.

| All amateur boxers must
register with USA Boxing before beginning boxing at any registered boxing club; the cost
at our center is $30.00 per year. Gym dues are $25.00 per month. So the total cost to
start is $55.00 for amateur boxers starting out at Barry's Boxing
Center. For all those who want to work out at our facility
gym it is a flat $50.00 per month and you do not
have to register with USA boxing. Everyone is required to have a pair of hand wraps
which you can buy from us if you choose for $10.00. You will also need boxing
or wrestling shoes within the first week because we do not allow
regular street shoes on our ring canvases, and a mouthpiece by the time coaches
say you are ready to begin sparring. top
|
| Your annual membership with USA boxing
provides you with secondary
insurance should you get hurt.
Your monthly dues allow you full use of the boxing
facility and weight room,
instruction by our registered and certified coaches,
group classes, and the
use of all our equipment.
top
|
| None; use of all our boxing equipment is
included with your gym dues unless
you choose to buy your own. The only things you must
have are your own
hand wraps, boxing shoes, and mouthpiece.
