HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! Today we have 30 years at the Jack Costello Boxing Club
30 Years Strong. Because of YOU.

Jack Costello Boxing Club is a non profit organization that improves the health, self esteem and character of our youth through structured boxing training
Real ones give back. 💯
The Philly Boxing Legend himself, Billy Briscoe pulled up to Jack Costello Boxing Club with his son, rising prospect Billy “El Flaco” Briscoe Jr , not just to train… but to work with the next generation.
When Billy Jr isn’t locked in preparing for his April 11 .promotions fight, he’ll be right here in the gym, a couple nights a week, helping coach the kids and putting time into the community.
This is what it’s about. Not just fighting… but building.
Make sure you come out April 11 and support one of our own. You’re gonna be hearing that name a lot more. 👀🔥
Coach makes a living as he says "punching peoole" but dont let that fool you. He also has a soft spot for the kids. Thanks to for getting to the core of who he is.
Four nights a week, Coach Ali Ellis Jr. is in this gym giving his time, his energy, and his heart to our kids. No cameras. No recognition. Hes there because he wants to give back what was given to him.
At the same time, he’s training for his own fight.
Ali is undefeated as a professional, and on April 11 at the 2300 Arena, he’s putting that record on the line with Blue Corner Promotions in a fight that means more than wins and losses.
He’s facing an opponent he lost to twice as an amateur, fighting out of this very gym.
This time is different.
Different version of Ali. Different preparation. Different purpose.
He’s not just fighting for himself. He’s fighting for this gym, these kids, and everyone who’s seen him show up night after night for others.
Now it’s our turn.
Come out and support Coach Ali the way he supports our youth every week. This one is personal. This one is for the gym. 🥊🟦☘️
April 11. 2300 Arena. Be there.
Hit up Ali directly for tickets or stop by the gym any weekday after 5pm.

Support our Coach! If you’ve ever been to the Jack Costello Boxing Club, you already know who Ali Ellis is.
Ali grew up right here.. He was a kid in the streets, dealing with the same things a lot of our kids face today. When he walked through our doors years ago, he wasn’t looking for glory. He was looking for a way out. Boxing became that way out. He listened, he worked, he changed his entire life.
Today he’s 7-0 as a professional fighter. He’s a single dad. He’s a coach who volunteers his time to train the kids in our gym. Not because he has to, but because he remembers what it felt like to be that kid who needed someone. Ali is everything this gym was built on. Hard work. Community. Second chances. Becoming better than your past.
On Saturday December 6, Ali steps into the ring at the 2300 Arena. And we want to pack that place for him.
If you support the gym, if you believe in what we do for this neighborhood, if you want the kids to see what changing your life really looks like, come out and support Ali.
Tickets are available now. Message us or or stop by the gym to grab yours. Dont buy them directly from the Arena, Ali gets credit for every ticket he sells.
Let’s show Ali the same love he shows our kids every day. Let’s make this a night he never forgets.

One man’s vision turned a corner gym into a community.
From the streets of Tacony to the hearts of everyone who ever laced up here —
we’re still fighting for the same cause Jack Costello believed in. 🥊
We have a great group of kids in the gym. They volunteered to help out at the Union Fights and they did an excellent job. They were on top of everything and didnt need to be babysat. We could t have asked for better help.
