Over 900 boxers from nearly every state will compete in the 2024 USA Boxing National Championships, beginning Monday, Dec. 16, at the Greater Richmond Convention Center.

The six-day tournament marks the start of the new Olympic quad and will serve as a critical pathway for athletes eyeing the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic Games, USA Boxing officials said.

“USA Boxing is excited to bring the National Championships to the city of Richmond and the state of Virginia,” said Mike McAtee, USA Boxing Executive Director, adding that the event will showcase talented hopefuls for the 2028 Olympic Games.

Competitions will run from Dec. 16-21, with most days featuring two daily sessions at noon and 6 p.m., except for Friday and Saturday’s finals, which will have single noon sessions.

The championships will include boxers in five age divisions: bantam (10-11), intermediate (12-13), junior (14-15), youth (16-17), and elite non-Olympic weight classes (18-39). Competitors in junior, youth, and elite divisions will vie for positions on USA Boxing’s 2025 High Performance teams.

Boxers will compete for national rankings, with the top eight in each weight category earning points toward 2025 standings.

Ticket prices range from $10 daily to $50 for a week pass, with championship bout tickets priced at $25.
