From the floor
to the ring.
For the ones who want more than fitness. Train under Evolve Boxing, represent Kapiti Boxing Club at competition, and step into a legacy over two decades in the making.
Built on legacy.
Kapiti Boxing Club has been a cornerstone of boxing on the Kapiti Coast for over two decades, built on discipline, community and a deep respect for the sport. Its foundations are strongly influenced by the legacy of Richard 'Dickie' Fleetwood, an accomplished amateur and professional boxer from 1950 to 1961 and a highly respected Wellington coach who dedicated his life to passing on boxing knowledge and values.
In 2001, Dickie's son Richard 'Richie' Fleetwood, alongside Erwin Tooby, founded the club to preserve this heritage and develop future generations of boxers. With committed coaches, committee members and supporters, KBC has achieved continued success both in and out of the ring.
Today, Kapiti Boxing Club partners with Evolve Boxing to carry the legacy forward, combining tradition with a modern training environment so the knowledge, culture and history of the club continue to thrive.
