BRIAN ZELLEY & DAN WRIGHT Founders Nanaimo Boxing Club 1971

We came serious about starting the NANAIMO BOXING CLUB in the Summer of 1971.  Fifty years later, there are four new coaches following Barry Creswell. The four includes Trish Harder and Stefan Melideo working year 51. From the history folks that were boxers and builders include Alan Brown, Barry Creswell, Bob Pegues, Brian Zelley, Clarke McLellan, Dan Wright, Jack Snaith and Mickey Griffin.

But, we can't forget the contributions by GEORGE NEPPER & JOHN ORMANDY for their help in the beginning.



 The two videos captures boxers from 1964 onward including boxers from the Newcastle club.
