Croeserw Boxing Club was one of the old great clubs in Wales and was run and set up by the much loved and respected Boxing Coach Mr Albert Bartle.The Boxing club was always a busy place and turned out many Welsh Champions in the 70's 80's and 90's.
People in Croeserw still talk about the great Albert Bartle and even if you ask the kids on the streets today who never even met him they all know his name . After his Death on the 20th march 2004 the gym closed its doors and old gym ran into disrepair in 2005/2006 and was sadly demolished leaving behind an empty space were a legend once stood.
The village has been without a boxing gym for several years, it has been missed as it was used by the whole community men, women, kids and they were always welcome.
The New Croeserw Boxing Club has been set up in the old Health Center on South Avenue not to far away from were the old gym once stood and we are hoping that we can achieve half the Results that Albert achieved in his much loved gym.
