Congratulations to Coach Ian Ricci

Two USA Boxing Gold Level Coaches. One Gym.

Congratulations to Coach Ian Ricci on completing his USA Boxing Gold Level Coach Certification!

Gold Level is the highest level of coaching certification within USA Boxing, and only a small number of coaches nationwide have achieved it.

This is a huge accomplishment for Ian and another step forward for our boxing program.

Bruce Hoyer was part of the initial group of USA Boxing coaches to earn Gold Level certification, and with Ian now completing his certification, Next Edge Academy is the only gym in the country with two USA Boxing Gold Level coaches on staff.

For our athletes, it means access to coaches who have invested heavily in understanding not only boxing technique, but athlete development, training methodology, competition preparation, and long-term coaching.

Congratulations, Ian. Well earned.
