Sport
With each stride taken, the runner pushes the boundaries of human tolerance. Body tensed as determined feet strike the ground. Filled with adrenalin and hope with only one thing on their mind, the finish line! For many, athletics is not just a way to pass time, but a lifestyle choice. Noticing the immense raw talent within the disadvantaged areas surrounding Boxer stores, it was an easy decision for Boxer to want to nurture the potential of determined and dedicated athletes. From this decision, the idea of an Athletics Club was born.
The Boxer Superstores Athletic Club was established in 2005 and has grown over the years from strength to strength. Providing support to professional and amateur athletes alike, the Boxer Athletics Club is a Club that is admired by many in the industry. With a striking kit in the Boxer red, yellow, white and black – the Club athletes proudly fly the Boxer flag high.
The strength of the Boxer Athletics Club lies in the abilities of its athletes and that belief was reaffirmed when a well recognised Boxer Athletics Club runner was selected to represent South Africa in the 2012 London Olympics, namely, Tanith Maxwell. There are many other Club athletes as well, who have made and continue to make great strides in the world of sports and Boxer is proud to have them wear our branding. Boxer is also dedicated to uplifting the development of community sporting clubs.
Fully branded soccer kits have been handed out to an overwhelming number of schools in support of their athletic dreams. Soccer tournaments have been sponsored in an effort to positively influence the free time that youngsters have. Boxer uses various initiatives to enhance the presence of sports in disadvantaged communities and to lay a foundation for future athletes to be realised. The Chairman of the Boxer Superstores Athletic club is the company’s Marketing Director, Andrew Mills.
