LEE Kelly
– COACH –
A former Army Commando, Lee brings a wealth of discipline, resilience, and determination to the gym. He first laced up the gloves at 16, competing in the Junior Army where he reached the lightweight final. He continued to box throughout his military career, winning his Regimental title at two different weight classes.
After leaving the Army, Lee stayed close to the sport through coaching. He became involved with Royal Leamington Spa ABC in 2019, initially supporting the physical training side while his son was boxing at the club. His commitment and passion for developing young fighters soon led him to complete a full coaching course with England Boxing, and he has been coaching at the club ever since. As a coach, Lee is passionate about helping boxers unlock their full potential. Drawing on his Commando background, he teaches that most people only use around 40% of their body’s true physical capacity before giving up. He focuses on pushing boxers past those limits through mental toughness, resilience, and hard work.
Lee is now a key member of the coaching team at Royal Leamington Spa ABC, where he inspires and motivates every boxer — whether they’re training for fitness, competition, or personal growth.
