Broad Street Amateur Boxing Club

Broad Street Amateur Boxing Club is a volunteer-run amateur boxing gym in Shadwell, east London, run by the charity The Highway Clubs. Founded in the nineteenth century, it began in Stepney and has occupied its Lowood Street premises since the 1950s. The club is known for offering free training to local people in one of the capital's most deprived areas, and for expecting real effort in return, including a demanding Friday calorie-burning tradition. It has weathered rent disputes and the threat of closure, and a long-term lease was agreed with the council in 2026. Its boxers and coaches also took part in the filming of the boxing film In the Shadows. It has trained young men and, more recently, women.
