  • On Modernity, Identity and White-Collar Boxing. Phd
    From Rookie to Rocky? On Modernity, Identity and White-Collar Boxing Edward John Wright, BA (Hons), MSc, MA Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. September, 2017 Abstract This thesis is the first sociological examination of white-collar boxing in the UK; a form of the sport particular to late modernity. Given this, the first research question asked is: what is white-collar boxing in this context? Further research questions pertain to social divisions and identity. White- collar boxing originally takes its name from the high social class of its practitioners in the USA, something which is not found in this study. White- collar boxing in and through this research is identified as a practice with a highly misleading title, given that those involved are not primarily from white-collar backgrounds. Rather than signifying the social class of practitioner, white-collar boxing is understood to pertain to a form of the sport in which complete beginners participate in an eight-week boxing course, in order to compete in a publicly-held, full-contact boxing match in a glamorous location in front of a large crowd. It is, thus, a condensed reproduction of the long-term career of the professional boxer, commodified for consumption by others. These courses are understood by those involved to be free in monetary terms, and undertaken to raise money for charity. As is evidenced in this research, neither is straightforwardly the case, and white-collar boxing can, instead, be understood as a philanthrocapitalist arrangement. The study involves ethnographic observation and interviews at a boxing club in the Midlands, as well as public weigh-ins and fight nights, to explore the complex interrelationships amongst class, gender and ethnicity to reveal the negotiation of identity in late modernity.

  • Return to Boxing Framework (April 2021) Guidance
    Return to Am Boxing April 2021 ENGLAND BOXING OFF THE ROPES: RETURN TO BOXING FRAMEWORK April 2021 1 Return to Am Boxing April 2021 OFF THE ROPES: GUIDANCE TOWARDS A FULL RETURN TO AMATEUR BOXING April 2021 Dear Members, Following the Government’s latest updates, set out below are key considerations and guidance in order that a phased return of the sport can be implemented in accordance with the government requirements so that the process towards a return to full boxing can start. Please be assured that England Boxing’s number one priority continues to be the safety and wellbeing of our clubs, members, volunteers and staff. The organisation will continue to communicate regularly and directly with our clubs and members, and issue further guidance and supporting documentation as it becomes available. As stated in previous updates, by its very nature, boxing poses a greater risk from COVID-19 than most other sporting activities. This reality is reflected in international advice as well as in this country. We also have to recognise that some members of the boxing community are more vulnerable to this virus than those in some other sports. England Boxing would like to, once again, recognise and pay tribute to those within the boxing community who have lost their lives and their loved ones. England Boxing would also like to thank the boxing community for coming together at this difficult time, whether you are a boxer, coach, official, volunteer or staff member supporting our sport and our local communities. Detailed below is what has been agreed with the Department of Culture, Media and Sport in order to allow the phased return of boxing.

  • Written Evidence Submitted by England Boxing
    Written evidence submitted by England Boxing Are current sports governance models fit for purpose? o At what level of sport should the government consider spending public money? What are the biggest risks to the long-term viability of grassroots sport? o What key measures could the Government introduce to increase the resilience of sports clubs and venues? To what extent should elite professional sports support the lower leagues and grassroots? o How should the Government make this happen? ENGLAND BOXING INTRODUCTION England Boxing is the National Governing Body for Amateur/Olympic boxing in England. There are 981 affiliated clubs with 40% of clubs in the top 20% of areas in the Indices of Multiple Deprivation. This compares with 16% of football clubs and 3% of tennis clubs. Initiatives targeting getting people to be active in areas of deprivation must consider investment in boxing clubs. The governing body ensures all competitions apply to national and international regulation. We also ensure that each club reaches a set of minimum standards with regards to the quality of the building and equipment used, the training of coaches and welfare officers, and that all competitive boxers have medicals from Doctors and are well matched to provide the safest possible conditions for competitive bouts. Many affiliated boxing clubs enjoy good levels of financial support with grants, most through Sport England capital and revenue grants. These clubs must meet our minimum standards in order to qualify for these grants. England Boxing is concerned that some boxing clubs who do not affiliate and therefore do not have to meet minimum standards listed above also apply for government funding and many are funded.
