Boxing Clever
Tom Ogg, September 2012
Boxing Clever is Tom Ogg’s account of teaching teenagers who had been expelled from school at the London Boxing Academy Community Project (LBACP) in Tottenham, North London. The aim of the project was to make use of the strong relationships that boxing coaches have with wayward young men.
“The prose is strong, the story compelling and the political implications profound… Tom Ogg has made a significant contribution.”
Lord Glasman (Foreword)
“…a vivid and moving portrait of South Tottenham and this very special school”
Nick Redgrove, Standpoint
