Gelligaer Boxing Club has been part of the community since 1965.

No corporate backing. No influencers.

Just a volunteer-run boxing club that’s been giving people discipline, confidence, and somewhere positive to turn up for nearly 60 years.

This fundraiser is to cover essential repairs to the building and upgraded equipment, so the club can keep doing exactly what it’s always done — without the roof, walls, or kit giving up first.

To raise the money, three local men made the catastrophic decision to sacrifice their dignity for the cause.

Meet the volunteers (emotionally):

Shaun “Curly” O’Connor aka Shadrack

Dixie Thomas aka The Mushroom Man

Barry Jay aka Barry Big Balls (nickname under review)

LAUNCH DAY: 7th MARCH

They’ll be kicking things off with not one, but two deeply regrettable challenges:

A 10-mile hike followed by an overnight camp on top of Pen y Fan

️ An eating challenge involving pig testicles and pig vaginas

Yes — real pigs.

Yes — real parts.

Yes — actually eaten.

No — they won’t enjoy it.

And this isn’t a one-off.

Weekly challenges will follow, getting progressively worse depending on how generous (or cruel) people feel.

All suffering will be filmed and posted on:

The Gelligaer Boxing Club Facebook page

The challengers’ personal Facebook accounts, where this will never disappear
