The Attleborough Community Gym was officially opened on 10th March and is under the  umbrella  of the Dereham Club. The town of Attleborough has also had a long association with the sport and memorabilia including programmes and original ringside bell from the  1950’s is displayed at the Gym.

May 2008
Welcome.....
The Gym is affiliated to the ABA as part of Dereham and District Boxing Club and  was opened on 7th March by Norfolk’s very own   current boxing champion – Jon Thaxton.   The premises were transformed into a “showcase” purpose built Gym through the generosity of local organisations and a lot of hard work by a band of local volunteers.
To date the Gym has been a fantastic success story with already in excess of 100 members enjoying the facilities and work ethic.
The Gym is a wonderful facility for the town and the Committee have been pleased in particular with the number of females joining.
