Parent and Guardian Guidelines:

Learning how to box has long been a way of teaching youth fundamental life skills they will use the rest of their lives. Cappy’s Boxing Gym’s Youth Program is designed to be a fun, safe and rewarding learning experience that offers boys and girls ages 8-16 the opportunity to become stronger mentally, physically and emotionally.

Our coaches care about your kids. They care that your child learn the rewards of practice, discipline, patience, respect, and that he/she not only learn how to box safely, but that he/she carries this training over into all aspects of his/her life. Please read our Youth Program Guidelines so you can be part of
the program too.

  • Our Youth Program has four levels:
    Level I — Beginning Boxer
    Level II — Fitness Boxer
    Level III — Recreational Boxer
    Level IV — Competitive Boxer

    All children start out as a Beginning Boxer and can progress through as many levels as they choose.
  • Each boxer needs to wear workout clothes, specifically some kind of gym shoe, shorts or sweats and T-shirt.
  • Boxers need hand wraps, and if she/he is going to spar, a mouth guard is required. Both items can be purchased at the gym. All other equipment is provided.
  • Please be on time. We recommend the boxers arrive at the gym 15 minutes before class begins so they can change clothes and wrap their hands.
  • No horseplay or goofing off. Boxers are in the gym to train. We encourage the parents to watch, but please no coaching from the side lines.
  • Learning how to box is about learning to control emotions, anger in particular. We expect our
    boxers not to engage in verbal or physical fisticuffs at school, home or in the streets.
  • Boxers might be asked to work on some fundamentals at home. In this case your child will bring
    home with her/him a printed description of what is expected.
  • You can purchase insurance to cover your child while he/she is in the gym by registering with USA
    Boxing for a $35 annual fee.

Frequently Asked Questions

How will Cappy’s Boxing Gym help my kid?
At Cappy’s Boxing Gym we not only help people get in shape, but we help them Shape The Life You Want. When we work with adults, this process largely consists of helping them undo habits of misaligned posture and negative self-image. It’s much easier with the youth, because they have fewer habits built up, and we can help them develop habits of aligned, strong posture and positive self-image that will last them a lifetime. Will my child get hurt?
We believe in safety and skill first. This is also the motto of USA Boxing, our nation’s Amateur Boxing Association that trains our Olympic athletes. Cappy’s Boxing Gym is committed to helping your child develop at her/his own fitness level, and she/he will not be asked to complete any drills that are not within her/his abilities. What kind of changes might my child go through while he/she is involved in this program?
Your child will get stronger, physically. You can expect that he/she will lose body fat and gain more lean muscle mass, and that his/her confidence and self-image will increase. Also, it is our goal to help your child increase his/her ability to focus and become more aware of being present instead of checked-out. What is the Everyday Fitness Program? My child came home saying he needed to practice Standing and Sitting.
At Cappy’s Boxing Gym, we not only strive to develop boxers who enter and win in the competitive ring to become our future Olympic athletes, but we strive to help boxers develop strong, positive lives outside of the ring. Not only will your child become stronger in the gym, but she/he will learn to increasingly see all of life as an opportunity to strengthen his/her own core of confidence. How can I help my kid get the most out of your program?
Take a few moments after each practice to ask your kid what he/she liked or learned that day. Make an effort to listen without comment, so you will get a chance to learn more about who your kid is becoming. Also, when your child brings home an Everyday Fitness homework assignment, take the time to do it with her/him. Your life will improve in the process. And, remember, Cappy’s Boxing Gym is here for you, too. You can take a Boxing Fitness Class to start getting back in shape and decrease the stress in your life, or you can sign up for the Everyday Fitness Program and start turning your life around. If you are a member of the gym your kid gets to join for half price.
