Introduction:

The Paeroa boxing club was originally established by Mr. Esterbrook back in 2001.

In 2013 Dan Mikkelsen started a boxing club at home in his double garage, which soon got too small for the number of people showing interest. He decided to look at the opportunity of utilizing the once cherished Paeroa boxing gym, and approached the Old Boys committee. Soon after, he got the green light to open the doors again and restore the place to its former glory.

Like most clubs, initially we started with second hand equipment which we raided from friend’s garages, but we soon knew if this was to become the boxing facility we dreamed of it was going to need some serious support. We began looking at ways to fundraise and tender for grants to help purchase new equipment.

We recently started a committee with Dan Mikkelsen, Ivan Jacobsen, Gene & Marie Young and Clare and Tane Bradley all dedicated to giving their time to the great community which is Paeroa and the participants of the box fit facility.

The club survives on fundraising, donations, and grant applications. The coaches who assist in the club are not paid and all the money raised goes back into paying for new gear, uniforms, travel expenses, tournament expenses and equipment.

The Club aims to promote fitness and nutrition and to help build Paeroa’s reputation as a great place to be. We will encourage all people men/women/children to come down and see the safe, fun, healthy family environment which is Paeroa Boxing and Fitness.
