Royal College Boxing was founded in 1913 by Mr.Donald Obeysekara. Royal boxers have continuously brought glory to their Alma Mater at Inter-School and All-Island boxing tournaments.
The Royal Boxing Club was formed in late 1985 by an enthusiastic former Royal College boxer. They felt that the Club would be an asset to Royalist boxers. In addition, it would also assist Old Royalists desirous of competing in national meets after leaving school.
