About Us

Our Story

Dungannon Boxing Club was founded in the mid-1980s by Bob “Dee” Jardine, who began training young people out of his garage with a simple mission: to give local youth a positive outlet and the discipline of sport. What started as a small community effort has since grown into a respected club, producing medal-winning athletes and serving as a safe, welcoming hub for people of all ages.

Our Mission

We believe boxing is about more than stepping into the ring. It’s about building discipline, respect, fitness, and resilience — life skills that carry far beyond sport. Our aim is to provide a supportive environment where everyone, from complete beginners to competitive athletes, can thrive.

What We Do

• Boxing Training: Structured coaching sessions for all levels, from grassroots to advanced competitors.

• Youth Development: Giving young people focus, confidence, and purpose through sport.

• Community Engagement: Working with schools and local groups to promote fitness, wellbeing, and education.

• Competition: Preparing athletes to compete at county, provincial, and national levels — with many bringing home gold.

Our Legacy

Over the years, Dungannon Boxing Club has seen incredible success. Our members have earned numerous medals across county and provincial championships, proving that with hard work and commitment, local talent can shine on the biggest stages.

Our Future

Today, under the guidance of the Jardine family and a dedicated team of coaches, we continue to invest in new facilities, equipment, and programmes. From hosting major community events like Rumble on the Hill to supporting future champions, we’re proud to carry forward a tradition of boxing excellence in Dungannon.
