STING Sports Partners with Panamerican Boxing Confederation to Launch Athlete Support Program

Investing in the Next Generation of Boxing Across the Americas

STING Sports is proud to announce a new partnership with the Panamerican Boxing Confederation (PBC), launching the PBC x STING Athlete Support Package Program- an initiative designed to equip promising athletes and coaches across the Americas with the premium boxing equipment they need to train, compete and succeed.

The program reflects a shared commitment to growing the sport by reducing barriers to participation and ensuring talented athletes have access to world class equipment, regardless of financial circumstances.

For the inaugural 2026 Athlete Support Package Program, 10 athletes from National Federations across the Panamerican region will receive comprehensive equipment packages, while their personal coaches will also receive specialist coaching equipment to support athlete development at every level.

Supporting Performance Where It Matters Most

At STING, we believe quality equipment should never be the reason an athlete misses an opportunity. Through this partnership, selected athletes will receive essential training and competition equipment, including:

• Training gloves
• Competition or training headguards
• Groin protector
• Hand wraps
• Mouthguard
• Skipping rope
• STING backpack or duffel bag

Recipients will be selected through an application process managed by the Panamerican Boxing Confederation, with consideration given to athletic performance, demonstrated need and competitive activity. A lottery component will also be included to provide broader access to athletes throughout the region.

Supporting the Coaches Behind Every Champion

Every successful boxer has a dedicated coach in their corner.

To recognise the critical role coaches play in athlete development, each selected athlete's personal coach will receive a Coach Support Package, including:

• Speed focus mitts
• Heavy hitter focus mitts

These resources are designed to strengthen training environments within National Federations and local boxing clubs, helping coaches continue developing athletes to compete on the international stage.

A Shared Vision for the Future of Boxing

Tamm Thibeault, Chairperson of the Panamerican Boxing Confederation Athlete Committee, welcomed the partnership:

"This partnership represents an important step forward in our efforts to support athletes and coaches throughout the Panamerican region. We know that access to quality equipment can have a meaningful impact on an athlete's preparation and development. Through the generosity and commitment of STING Sports, we are creating opportunities that will help athletes and coaches continue pursuing excellence while strengthening boxing across the Americas."

Amir Anis, Founder and CEO of STING Sports, said the initiative aligns with the company's long-standing commitment to growing boxing around the world.

"Our goal is to provide deserving athletes and coaches with the equipment they need to train and perform at their best. We are proud to partner with the Panamerican Boxing Confederation on a program that directly supports the boxing community and invests in the future of the sport throughout the Americas."

Together, STING Sports and the Panamerican Boxing Confederation are helping remove barriers, empower athletes and coaches, and strengthen the future of boxing across the Americas.
