Starrett City Boxing

Used to train here back in the days of Jimmy O', Mr. Tate and Bobby. These were men who gave of themselves for their community and built incredible athletes. I KNOW Jimmy O' was putting money out of his own pocket to for trainers to teach kids who who couldn't necessarily afford a trainer. He did this just to keep kids off the streets...which really weren't such bad streets in the 80's, at least not in Starrett. I know most of this stuff is irrelevant today, but I had to say something about these guys.

The history alone at this gym is five stars. The feel and the ownership is top notch. Being from Brooklyn and having something like this for the youth is second to none. Such an amazing gym, I would recommend to anyone. Check it out for yourself! 🥊

This a beautiful gym enriched with family values and mores extended down from the founder Jimmy O’Pharrow. If you’re looking to place your child or joining yourself. This is the perfect place for a pugilist.

Best thing you can do for yourself and your child is join this gym. When me and my son came through the doors it was kinda nerve racking and intimidating. People seen we were new and gave us handshakes and words of encouragement. That means a whole lot to me. The coaches and people training make you feel welcome.

I went to see the location where it said Starret City Boxing but it was actually Brooklyn Sports Club. When inquired about Starret City Boxing BSC staff notified me that they are no longer here and could not further inform me of SC Boxing Club location or status. I made many attempts to call Starret City Boxing to no success. As the owner of Starret City Boxing He/She should update their info and whereabouts during Covid times as many other businesses have done.
