The gym

Adaptation. Protection. Resistance.

Sparring Garden was born from the desire to create a boxing club where people can train, learn, compete and, above all, enjoy the sport in an environment built on respect, effort and community.

Behind the project are more than twenty-five years dedicated to boxing. Fefe, the driving force behind the project, competed at the highest amateur level, becoming French National Champion, and has spent the last 15 years coaching and developing athletes. This experience is the starting point for a welcoming club, open to everyone and built on a love for the sweet science.

We believe in doing things right, and in boxing as a tool for physical and mental wellbeing. We want everyone to find their place here. From those who want to compete to those who simply want to enjoy training, there is a place for everyone at Sparring Garden.

We want to build a club with roots in L’Hospitalet, committed to its neighbourhood and its people. We have experience developing social projects through boxing, and we would like to collaborate with schools, local organisations and associations to bring boxing closer to the community.

We want to preserve and celebrate the history and culture of boxing. It is a discipline with a rich past, its own ideals, and people whose stories deserve to be known and remembered. We want Sparring Garden to be a place where people come not only to train, but also to share and experience boxing.

The cactus symbolises the way we understand this project: staying strong when conditions are difficult, protecting what surrounds us and adapting without losing our essence.

Through boxing, we build community.
