Boxers from Revere Boxing Outreach Program participated in the Winter Warfare Boxing Competition at Bernardo Boxing in Fall River. The USA Boxing sanctioned event paired Revere’s Pedro Rodriguez Bedoya and Elias Ruiz with some strong competition. “We may not have come home with a W, but our Revere boys stepped up and fought two great fighters without any hesitation. We will continue to develop and improve, brick by brick, day by day.” said Joe Singer, one of the founders of the program and one of Revere’s School Resource Officers. The program will be highlighted again in the New England Silver Gloves Tournament on December 16th and 17th in Winthrop with Jamil Orchi representing Revere.
Revere Boxing Outreach is a nonprofit organization designed to uplift the youths and families in the city of Revere. Revere Boxing Outreach creates a safe and welcoming environment under the guidelines of the USA Boxing Athlete and Non-Athlete Code of Conduct and USA Boxing’s Safesport Police Handbook, which focuses on recognizing, reducing, and responding to misconduct in sport. In collaboration with USA Boxing, Revere Boxing Outreach endeavors to teach all participants the character, confidence, and focus they need to become resilient and diverse champions, both in and out of the ring.
