Fran Sands is an amateur boxing coach and mentor to kids and teens in the Northeast of England. His involvement in amateur boxing began in 1978, when at the age of six he entered his first boxing gym. Over the next 13 years he competed in 60 amateur contests, winning regional titles, reaching national semi-finals and finals, and representing England at Under-19 level. At the age of 23, he moved into a coaching role.
Our conversation became deep at times, as it flowed in and out of topics from boxing instruction to mentoring the youth, to strategies and tactics and how being part of a boxing family and an amateur boxing club impacts lives. I found Fran Sands to be smart, thoughtful, and soulful in his approach and outlook, and I quite enjoyed our conversation. I hope you will, too.
