My name is Morgan McDonald. I have my bachelors in therapeutic recreation. Where I graduated from Southern Illinois University in Carbondale, Il. I am the founder and head coach for Lucy Laney Boxing Academy in Minneapolis, MN. I have been a member of our LBC for 7 plus years. I am a Bronze Level certified USA Boxing coach. My club, LLBA, was established as a non-profit organization in 2019 with the intent to have a safe place for students at my school to develop as student athletes and leaders. Our club has afforded many scholars the opportunity to learn how to regulate their emotions and develop healthy habits and discipline with diet and exercise. With USA Boxing, our athletes have also been able to experience new things and compete with boxers across our nation. Experience is everything and I’m grateful for all the opportunities of growth and development that USA Boxing has provided for our athletes. I am the Dean of Students at Lucy Craft Laney Community School and have 11 years of experience in leadership, coaching, education and student development. Athletes on my team have managed to accomplish winning 34 National titles in a span of 5 years.

I am a big supporter of our LBC. I make every effort to support as many of our clubs as possible by visiting gyms for sparring, drilling, and conditioning. I have collaborated with several coaches and clubs in our LBC to help put MN on the map, by attending national tournaments holding myself and team with high standards and knowing being ambassador, at the same time. Making sure everyone know who LBC30 is. Another way I provide support for our LBC is by volunteering my time to officiate. I am a Level 2 official, who has worked the role of referee, judge, timekeeper, glove table, weigh master, and clerk. I am a certified OIC (Official in Charge), and have done my best to acquire as much knowledge about the sport of boxing as possible.

I am declaring interest in being our LBC Vice President. I recognize this position will work hand in hand with our elected President. With my collaboration skills, I can guarantee that I will be available to fulfill the duties and responsibilities of President if ever needed, and I will work with our LBC Board of Directors to ensure we continue to grow our LBC through the recruitment of officials, as we’ll continue to help navigate everyone with the knowledge of the benefits of what boxing can help with which would introduce the therapeutic aspect of the sport we love. More members, which mean we that we can host more shows in more areas of our LBC. I appreciate and value all voices and consideration and will represent our LBC well.
