Welcome to the new USA Masters Boxing website. Our goal since we started in 2003 has been to create a central location of information for master boxers and those looking to become master boxers. We understand it can still be a challenge to gather the information needed to compete or to find events for master boxers. This is why we are here and hope you find the website helpful. Along the way, we also created some platforms so master boxers can share their journeys and inspire others. Masters boxing is unique and we consider all that are part of the division family. So welcome to the family!
