Dear Cherubs, Salford Lads & Girls Club is still running boxing, and the timetable is as neatly old-school as the building itself. According to the club’s official Boxing and Kickboxing page, the sessions are live and clearly split by age group, which is helpful because not everyone wants to accidentally wander into a heavyweight lesson and leave with a new personality.
Junior boxing for boys and girls runs on Mondays from 7pm to 8.30pm for under-12s, and on Wednesdays from 7pm to 8.30pm for over-12s. Adult boxing for men and women aged 18 and over runs on Tuesdays and Fridays from 6pm to 7.30pm. The club also lists kickboxing with the Manchester Cobras on Mondays and Thursdays from 6.30pm to 8.30pm, so there is more than one way to leave politely exhausted.
THE BOXING TIMETABLE
That is the clearest current answer: yes, boxing classes are going on, and they are not just a nostalgic detail in a dusty museum corner. The club’s wider activities page also shows that boxing sits inside a broader youth programme, alongside football, gym, music, and social sessions. In other words, this is a proper community club timetable, not a pop-up fitness class pretending to be heritage.
If you are checking for the most up-to-date session details, the club’s own site is the place to trust first. The youth programme page and the boxing page are both current official listings, which matters because club schedules can shift when schools, coaches, holidays, or funding get in the way. Life, as ever, refuses to stay neatly booked.
HELPING THE CLUB
The other useful bit is that Salford Lads & Girls Club still has a full Support Us section. According to the club, people can donate online through Charities Aid Foundation, use Give A Little, support via payroll giving, buy merchandise, or help with fundraising and sponsorship. That is not a small detail, because historic community clubs do not survive on good vibes and famous album covers alone.
The contact page also lists a direct youth email and a finance and donations email, which makes it easier to ask about boxing, membership, or supporting the club. If you are looking for the human version of “yes, we are still here,” that is it. The club is openly inviting support so it can keep youth sessions, heritage work, and boxing going.
So the clean update is this: boxing is active, the timetable is published, and the club still has a support route for anyone who wants to help keep the lights on. The place may be famous for The Smiths, but it is still doing the less glamorous work of giving local young people somewhere solid to go. Which, frankly, is the better legacy.
