Our Heritage and Mission
Ashfield Spartans has a storied history dating back to the 1970s, fostering talent and community spirit. After a vibrant initial run, the club was revitalised in 2019 under the leadership of Rich Fox, who, along with seasoned coaches and former boxers Stewart Nubley and Hector Muir, re-established the Spartans name. Our team brings decades of experience, ensuring that our boxers receive top-notch training and mentorship.
