Legends Gym, Kensington. Saturday 21 November, 10am–2pm.
The launch event
A full showcase of everything chessboxing has to offer, with live chessboxing demonstrations, sparring, prizes, games, expert guests and more. Come down and watch, compete, spar, or simply be part of a one of a kind event. Free entry. Saturday 21 November at Legends Gym, Kensington.
Our first event. PCYC Glebe, March 2025.
The sport
You play a round of chess, box a round, then go back to the board, and it repeats until someone wins by checkmate or knockout. It's a real sport with twenty years of history overseas, and it's the hardest hour you'll do. You don't need to box or play chess to start.
What we run
Real sparring under a coach, with proper protection and opponents at your level. The step up from the weekly sessions, coming soon.
Weekly sessions at Sydney Park. Boxing rounds and blitz chess, out in the open, for anyone. No experience needed in either.
Smart and strong, in the one sport. A dedicated program for young athletes up to 17, coming soon.
Bring your team. Decision-making under real physical pressure, run as a private session for workplaces and groups.
