WHO WE ARE AND WHEN DID IT START
Bringing the ultimate fitness solution & skills for self defence to Bury St Edmunds for all ages & abilities
Founded in February 2024, we set out with a simple yet powerful goal: to bring boxing to Bury St Edmunds and Suffolk—with a twist. We welcome everyone.
From future champions to fitness enthusiasts and everyone in between, our doors are open to all.
Since our launch night just 12 months ago, we’ve welcomed over 1,000 boxers across five locations. We’ve fought and won belts at London’s iconic York Hall, and our members range from 4 to 74 years old. We’ve seen mothers train alongside daughters, fathers spar with sons, and professionals from all walks of life—doctors, bricklayers, and those seeking confidence—step into the ring and push themselves beyond their limits.
At SEBC, ego, troubles, and differences are left at the door. We are more than a boxing club; we are a community built on respect, discipline, and personal growth—both inside and outside the ring.
We proudly work with King Edward’s Upper School, disability support groups, Scouts, children, young adults, and more, ensuring boxing is accessible to everyone.
So, if you’re looking for a boxing club without the fear factor, you’ve found it.
Welcome to Team SEBC.
