Come out to support your local Deputies and Firefighters as they leave it all in the ring, first bell rings at 6pm sharp. All event proceeds will benefit the children in our community of all abilities. Two special charities and projects will receive assistance from Fight Night.The Diamond of Dreams is a new build project providing a ball field and a playground for children with special needs. The St. Johns County Police Athletic League (PAL) is an organization that provides all youth an opportunity to play a variety of sports in St. Johns County. While supporting your local heroes, you can contribute to a much larger cause!The night will kick off with teenagers in the ring that are a part of the PAL Boxing Program. These kids are tough and have dedicated their time to the team to be awarded a legit fight in front of a real audience. The main events consist of members of SJSO, SJCFR and SAFD battling for the belt and annual title. These fighters have shown commitment and devotion to the event on their off time while still serving the community in fire trucks, patrol cars and our jail. The fights will be three rounds, one minute each, with a one-minute interval.
The St. Johns County Sheriff’s Office held its first boxing event last year on a smaller scale and it was a huge success. This year will be bigger and better at The Amp! The boxing ring will be placed in the pit area, so every seat will be fantastic! There will be special guest judges, food and drinks, Fight Night merchandise and more.
Fight Night Promoter, SJSO Deputy Krissie Padgett said, “I’ve fought in amateur boxing matches...it takes a lot of courage to get in that ring, especially in front of a large crowd. I’m so excited for this group of fighters to experience the exhilarating feeling of entering The Amp with their walk-out song blaring and hearing the fans cheer, there’s nothing like it! Whether you win or lose, it feels amazing to represent your agency in such a positive light to ultimately help the children of our community.”
