Who We Are
More Than a Gym
Waterloo ABC is a grassroots amateur boxing club rooted in the heart of Liverpool's Waterloo community. We're not a fancy fitness chain — we're a proper boxing gym where dedication, discipline, and community come first.
Whether you're a complete beginner lacing up gloves for the first time, a parent looking for a positive outlet for your kids, or an aspiring competitor chasing championship belts — there's a place for you here. Our members range from juniors to adults, and everyone trains with the same respect and work ethic.
With affordable sessions from just £3 to £5 a class, we believe world-class coaching shouldn't come with a premium price tag.

From Our Members
What Our Members Say
Started a boxing circuit class with my mates and it's been brilliant. The coach is ex-pro — his knowledge of boxing and fitness is top notch, and he's really patient with the lads. The gym has everything you need: weights, bags, rings, the lot. Great place to train.

Not at all. Our beginners classes are designed for people with zero experience. We'll teach you everything from stance and footwork to punching technique. All you need to bring is yourself and a willingness to learn.
Comfortable sportswear, trainers, and a water bottle. We have gloves and pads available at the gym for beginners. As you progress, you may want to invest in your own gloves and hand wraps.
Our classes are just £5 per session. We believe quality boxing training should be accessible to everyone, regardless of budget. No contracts, no joining fees — just pay as you go.
We welcome all ages. Our children's beginners class caters to juniors, and our ladies class and general sessions are open to adults of all ages. Whether you're 10 or 50, there's a session for you.
Absolutely. We have an active competition squad and regularly take our fighters to bouts across the region. If your child shows the dedication and ability, our coaches will guide them through the competition pathway when they're ready.
