We have successfully held two boxing competitions. The first was in Sydney, delivered as part of World Pride, and the second was an exhibition event in Chicago. We are removing barriers to sports, providing opportunities for participants and fans to enjoy and celebrate boxing in a welcoming and friendly environment. We have a track record of attracting local, LGBTQ+, and international media. WGBC has been featured in CNN, BBC Sport, ABC, CBS, The Guardian and Out Magazine.

World Gay Boxing Championships

World Gay Boxing Championships (WGBC) is an Australian nonprofit committed to increasing LGBTQIA+ and  inclusion and participation in boxing.

We are an inclusive organisation and work closely with our allies to disrupt homophobia, transphobia etc. in boxing and sport in general.  

We organise and hold safe, successful, and fun boxing competitions where everyone is welcome. In the modern world, boxing is also about championing confidence, health and wellness, love, community, and friendship. We have been featured in CNN, The Guardian, ABC News, CBS News, BBC Sport, Out Magazine, and many prestigious international and LGBTQIA+ media outlets.

We have received statements of support from the World Boxing Council, International Boxing Organization, World Boxing Association, and World Boxing Federation. Safe participation is our number one priority.
