At the RF Youth Boxing camp this summer, 25 athletes ages 8-14, nearly all on full scholarship, were trained by pros in the sport—and so much more. Coaches taught the core principles of discipline, focus, respect, work ethic, persistence and confidence through challenging workouts and special activities, including field trips and career day speakers. The camp is just one intiative offered from the non-profit based at Revolution Training on Elmcroft Rd., which also runs a popular after-school option and a newly launched mental health program. White Collar Boxing 2K24, featuring dinner and live matches where local (non-boxing) professionals duke it out, is the org’s main fundraiser. It takes place November 1 at the Hyatt Regency in Greenwich.
