freddie has been a boxing coach for over 60 years he is 79 this year he is still training now. he belives in everyone.MY PASSION TO INSPIRE OTHER'S IS TO KEEP THE SPORT GOING I'VE TRAINED MANY GUYS OVER THE YEARS TO BECOME COACHES AS TO CARRY ON BOXING TRAINING I BELIEVE THE SPORT ITSELF IS GREAT FOR DISCIPLINE'S IN YOUNG CHILDREN AND KEEPS KIDS OF THE STREET WHICH HAS ALWAYS BEEN A GOAL OF MINE AND TO TEACH THEM RIGHT FROM WRONG. I HAVE OVER THE PAST 60 YEARS TOOK MANY TEAMS TO VARIOUS OLYMPICS AND HAD BOBBY WELLS AT THE 1984 OLYMPICS AND HE WON A BRONZE MEDAL. I've been England boxing coach for most of my life and also run football teams as well as boxing it would be an honour to carry the Olympic torch after all the years i have been committed to the sport. All the Best freddie Barr Look forward to hearing from you.
