Duke It Out Boxing Club

Founded in 2018, Duke It Out Boxing Club began as a grassroots initiative in Coach Duke's garage, evolving into a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in 2019. Our mission centers on providing a safe, bully-free environment for youth development through boxing, fostering confidence, discipline, and healthy habits. With five dedicated volunteer coaches and approximately 40 boxers, we emphasize personalized mentorship and rigorous training. Twenty-three of our athletes compete at the amateur level, including three nationally ranked boxers. We host major events like the 2022 Junior Olympics, impacting hundreds of children in the Corpus Christi area over five years.

Our approach combines physical training with life skills, creating a close-knit community where young athletes thrive. We operate with transparency, relying on donations and volunteer efforts to sustain our programs. Our coaches, seasoned boxers themselves, train daily to instill passion for the sport while prioritizing safety and personal growth. This commitment has established us as a trusted leader in youth boxing development, with measurable community impact and a vision for continued expansion.
