Dagenham Boxing Club

Dagenham Boxing Club, known locally as the Daggers, is an amateur boxing club based inside the Heathway shopping mall. Founded in 1950 according to paper records, it trains boxers from primary-school age through to seniors, with a nursery group, a junior beginners group that feeds the carded junior squad, and senior sessions. Carded boxers compete in England Boxing and NABGC championships, and the club has produced Schoolboy, Junior and national champions, including Kevin Mitchell, who went on to win British and Commonwealth professional titles. The gym has two full-size rings, a good range of bags and speed balls, free weights and a sport floor funded by Sport England. The club also hosted an England Boxing coaching course on working with people with Parkinson's.
