Over the last year Rachel Adam's has been working with Old Trafford Boxing Club to capture the passion, energy and determination of their boxers and coaches. Cutting across divides of class, race and gender the boxing club provides a space where young and old can come together in one of Manchester's most multi-cultural areas to compete in a sport which appears violent and yet teaches discipline and dedication.
In the coming months Adam's will be expanding the project across other boxing clubs in the city to explore how a sport strongly associated with working class Mancunians is acting as the conduit to bring together diverse communities and people.
We are looking for more clubs to take part, whether amateur or semi-pro, traditional boxing or mixed martial arts, we're looking to document how grassroots fighting clubs remain an integral part of Mancunian identity. To let us know about your club please fill in the form to the right.
