At Legends Boxing, our coaches are trained and certified in real USA boxing. Their knowledge and skills make each class not only a great workout, but a lesson in the sport of boxing. 


Two coaches at our Lehi, Utah, gym decided to go above and beyond their required Legends training. Brittney Lige and Curtis Lige, who have been coaches for over four years, have a true passion for boxing and teaching the skill to others. Both recently trained to be fight officials with USA Boxing and are progressing to being certified as judges as well. 


“It just made sense to me to learn more about what we are teaching,” Curtis said, who started the process first. Brittney, inspired by everything her husband learned, soon joined the process. 


“It’s about the knowledge,” Brittney said, “and being around other people who love boxing as much as we do.” They use what they learn from this extra training in every class they coach to help Legends members understand and appreciate boxing. 


The USA Boxing certification process includes online training with tests and then shadowing certified officials at sanctioned events. Brittney and Curtis were able to complete one of their shadowing requirements at the recent Legends Boxing Executive Fight Night, which included ten bouts and a thousand people in attendance.
