INTRODUCTION
On behalf of London Amateur Boxing Association (LABA) and Powerday, we are delighted to present
this Annual 2013-2014 Development Review and Performance Report.
LABA has played a significant and crucial role in growing, sustaining and providing excellence in the sport
across London, without any direct funding or income from any other source.
LABA have however, been pro-active in securing a high profile London based commercial Principal Partner
in Powerday PLC, who support the development activities and work currently being delivered through the
region from 2013 -2016, and delivered in a unique mixed economy approach, to provide a long term legacy
building on the London 2012 Olympics with other partners within and across the London sporting and
local authority landscape.
Our objectives are to support the sustainability of the current achievements, and to strategically build on
these solid foundations, as we seek to deliver our specific targets and objectives identified within the
London Whole Sport Plan and Strategy 2013-17 and thereby supporting and under-pinning the Sport
England and England Boxing targets over this Four Year cycle. It should be recorded Sport England and
London Boroughs have been exemplary with their support and funding to our clubs, projects and
initiatives, which fit their criteria and strategies.
We will continue to promote and develop the sports participation levels, by increasing the popularity of
the sport whilst communicating the social and personal health benefits which can be provided through
Boxing, to the 8.2 Million Londoners (Population Census 2011), which equates to 14.6% of the 56 Million
population in England (World Population Census 2014).
The Sport England Active People Survey (SEAPS, Quarter 8 April 2013-April 2014) confirms the upward
trajectory of boxing participation in London, with 44,800 Once a Month Participants, which equates to 22%
Of the total England Boxing participation figures, thereby confirming London ABA and its partners are
having a positive influence and impact on the Sport England and Boxing specific targets. These outcomes
are along with other Key Performance Indicators, delivering our own London ABA Whole Sport Plan targets
for 2013/14.
