Ontario Amateur Boxing?

[HammerMap]

Looking for information from local boxers regarding local shows. I am in hamilton and train in kickboxing and boxing at Joslins. I am interested in competing in amateur events in both (i already have competed in kickboxing and karate) but upon looking at the Ontario Amateur Boxing website realized that my gym is not recognized by the governing board as a a registered training facility and therefore cannot host events (which explains why they dont lol). I know that if enough people expressed and interest in it the club would be willing to go through whatever steps are necessary in order to be on the list of accpeted gyms. Howeverr, my primary concern right now is finding out if and where i can compete without approaching them and asking them to register. I would like every much to find out information about promoters in ontario and maybe new york who put on shows and what i would need to do to compete in them. Anyone with any information would be greatly appreciated.

This may be the site you already looked at, but you can go to the club directory, and look at the website/more info about clubs in the area and contact them, there is also a listing of all the events coming up in the future.

Heres a website with all the athletic comissions, theres links to a lot of their web pages and contact information for most of them.
ABC Boxing - Association of Boxing Commissions - United States - Canada - Puerto Rico - US Virgin Islands

In order to fight in Ontario you need to be registered with a club that is certified under Boxing Ontario. You need to pay your $50 fee and get a medical.
