USA Boxing is set to host five national events in four states throughout the 2026 calendar year. The Olympic-style boxing organization’s five national events will provide opportunities for boxers within each division, including PeeWee, Bantam, Intermediate, Junior, Youth and Elite divisions along the way. These events allow USA Boxing athlete members to accrue points for the USA Boxing National Rankings.
The organization will kick off the year in Pueblo, Colorado, with the 2026 USA Boxing International Open. USA Boxing will return to the Pueblo Convention Center from February 7 to 14, with competition set to begin on Tuesday, February 10. This event will be open to the Intermediate, Junior, Youth and Elite divisions for males and females, and will allow boxers to compete against domestic and international contenders.
Following the 2026 International Open will be the 2026 USA Boxing Women’s Championships, which will take place in Colorado Springs, Colorado, home to the United States Olympic and Paralympic Committee and the United States Olympic and Paralympic Training Center. This event will be hosted at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Colorado Springs from March 11 to 14 and will be open to female competitors in all divisions, including both beginners and experienced competitors, as well as matched bouts. The event returns after a one-year hiatus and has been rescheduled for the early part of the year to accommodate female competitors during the traditional Golden Gloves season.
USA Boxing will then host its annual Junior Olympics & Summer Festival in June in Wichita, Kansas. Wichita hosted this prestigious event in 2024, and now USA Boxing will return to the Century II Performing Arts & Convention Center for the second time in three years. This event is open to all divisions and will be held from June 20 to June 27.
To conclude the year, USA Boxing will return to Lafayette, La., for the first time since 2024, when the city hosted the 2024 Women’s Championship. USA Boxing’s 2026 National Championships will return to the CAJUNDOME, which hosted the 2024 U.S. Olympic Team Trials for Boxing and the 2023 National Championships. This event will take place from December 5 to 13 and will be open to Bantam, Intermediate, Junior, Youth and Elite divisions in all weight classes.
Lastly, USA Boxing is pleased to announce that a fifth national event will be hosted in the Fall of 2026; however, a date and location have yet to be determined at this time. USA Boxing members can stay tuned to the USA Boxing website for an official announcement at a later date.
The top eight boxers in each weight category at the conclusion of each event will receive points towards the USA Boxing National Rankings. Additional ranking information is available HERE.
There will be an additional announcement regarding the regional events in 2026, so USA Boxing members should stay tuned for more information at a later date.
