The London District TA & Army Boxing Club
We are not so old in the boxing fraternity.
Some of our boys are just out of maternity.
But what they posses is heart and vigour.
They all have the trained ability to squeeze a trigger.
Being in the forces goes hand in hand with sport.
It brings people together and gives them a rapport.
Boxing is an art and not for the fainthearted.
You have to give your all once you have started.
Our boxers give up their time for club and the Army.
Most people on the outside would think they were barmy.
But what they receive is the best of both functions.
Both these activities have cross over junctions.
To be a soldier you have to have moral courage and heart.
The exact ingredients for a boxers start.
Both are capable of precise actions.
But also capable of well judged reactions.
They both have discipline to add to the mix.
A dose of daily adrenalin is their only fix.
At our club we are all the same.
We bring our own uniqueness to this very tough game.
So if you feel you have what it takes to join the Army and club?
You don’t have to pull out a lamp and give it a rub.
Just make a call to change your life.
Just don’t do it without first telling the wife.
