    Hi All!

    I'm a Hungarian person - so sorry for my not quite well English knowledge - and I want become boxing coach, but in Hungary there aren't really good boxing coach courses, one could say, there're quite poor quality courses...

    I heard in England very good boxing coach courses and I'm very interested in, because I've not finished my studies at university in Hungary yet (I'm a part-time law student and meanwhile I'm working in full-time) and England not to far away from Hungray (the travel 2,5 hours by Wizzair/Ryanair :yep). Then I looked it up about costs of living, finding jobs in England and I think I can solve these questions..

    My problem that I don't know where can I absolving boxing coach certification in England, which institute can give boxing coach certification, what about system of become to boxing coach, etc...

    Can you help for me about these question?

    Thank you in advance for your answers! :)))

    I forgot an important thing - I doing boxing for 14 years, I participated many tournament in my country and I started 4 internatoinal tournament in other country (Ireland, Germany - Mühldorf, Ingolstadt -, Georgia). I finished a competitive sporting when I was 18 years old, but I do boxing now yet as my hobby.

    I was 2nd and 3rd in Hungarian National Championship (cadets, juniors).

    congratulations on those accomplishments. it sounds like you'll be an asset to a boxing program. National Governing Bodies might not let someone who does not live/represent that country do their certifications. contact GBR boxing to see where they stand on it.

    and i'm curious, with your experience, why do you want to get certified if that's not a standard in your country? if you want to learn just for the sake of learning there are really good resources on the internet.

    here's a LTAD manual from boxing canada

    not to mention here's a link to upcoming aiba courses. consider contacting them and possibly becoming certified through AIBA to develop boxing in your own country.

    Thank you very much for these links, these are so useful for me :)) I wrote to GBR boxing's email address today ;)
    I think I'll be moving to England in advance - If I have notified English address, is it adequate for applying to GBR's coach course, or I need British citizenship for that?

    And I didn't find information about do I need boxing coach certification for applying AIBA courses or not (I think I need)... I will wrote to AIBA about this question but if you know about that, please let's write this info ;)

    AIBA may have more allowance because there isn't a coaching certification in your country. it's best to go right to the source. I do not know the answers to those questions. I'm in the US, and not sure of GBR policies. good luck!

    Think you have to affiliate to a club, then they put you forward, to the ABA course.

    As you're an EU citizen I believe you have a right to work and learn anywhere in the EU - you shouldnt need British citizenship (unless we vote to leave the EU in the coming referendum!)
