When Cale's dad was talking to our coach Robbie about his hockey and conditioning, Robbie mentioned that boxing is a great way to condition. With that Cale come to the club to give it a try, and hasn't looked back. When Cale comes in to train, he starts right away either skipping, on the heavy bag, or doing some warm-up while he is waiting for the rest of the boxers to get there, and is always ready to get on the pads with the coaches or spar.
Cale is an avid hockey player, and one day would love to play for the Pittsburgh Penguins, but he enjoys boxing just as much as it helps him stay in shape and teaches him some self defense.
He encourages those who want to try boxing to come down to the New Waterford Boxing Club because he says "it's fun, and a great group of people".
At 10 years old, he hasn't had a bout yet, but hopefully that will soon change. When he is not playing hockey or at boxing training, which is usually 2 to 3 times a week, he can be found hanging out with his friends, scootering, or playing hockey.
Good Luck Cale, and we can not wait to see you in the ring!!
