Help Us Build a World-Class Boxing Gym in Tamale – Northern Boxing Hub

Organized by 57SPORTS CLUB

The Vision:

Northern Ghana is home to some of the most passionate and dedicated young fighters, but they train in under-equipped environments with barely any support. Coach Waliwu and the Northern Boxing Hub in Tamale have been grooming young talent against all odds.

With your help, we can turn this gym into a professional, safe, and inspiring space to empower the next generation of champions.

But this project is bigger than boxing. It's about changing lives. It's about giving young people — many from the streets — a purpose, a routine, and a family they can grow with. This gym won't just train fighters; it will create structure, instill discipline, and offer hope.

As Coach A. Waliwu puts it:

"This gym means life and light to the people of the north. It marks an improved beginning, a whole sense of belonging, a source of given birth to similar or more gyms in the north."

✅ Why It Matters:

57SPORTS CLUB believes in building from the roots. We stand for visibility, development, and dignity in African sports. This project is not just about a gym – it’s about transforming lives.

When we support clubs like this, we offer young people alternatives to crime, idleness, and hopelessness. The Northern Boxing Hub can become a local engine of growth: a place where youth can train, get mentorship, and even work. With proper funding, the club can employ locals to manage and maintain it, creating jobs and responsibility within the community.

Coach Waliwu's vision aligns with this:

"To uncover world-class boxing talent in Northern Ghana, promoting sustainable growth, development and empowerment."

This is the beginning of something bigger. The Northern Region deserves its own champion-building facility. We want to make that happen – with your support.

How Funds Will Be Managed:

All funds raised will be directly managed by 57SPORTS CLUB. The account is currently held in Belgium under the leadership of the founder, with full transparency and accountability.
