View Full Version : Where should I take up boxing?

I recently learned boxing from one of my cousins. It's one of the few sports I'm good at. I don't know if I'll join the school team (since the year's just about up, I'll have to wait until the fall). I'm afraid to join the school team since boxing has kind of a bad reputation - people think it's sport for street kids and bullies (and I am neither of those), and a few kids told me that I'm not heavy enough. I wouldn't fight people who aren't in my weight class, and my school's team has plenty of guys smaller than me.

Should I join my school's boxing team? If not, where else can I practice? (Neither of my brothers are into boxing, so I can't do it at home.)

If you want to join the boxing school team, then you should do it. It's a sport like any other, and it's not necessarily associated with bullies and thugs, so you shouldn't listen to those opinions.

local boxing club seems logical for the summer
