White Collar Boxing Event Security
White collar boxing is a great night out with an unusual security profile: everyone in the room has a personal stake in a result.
Know the crowd
The audience is friends, family and colleagues, usually seated at tables with drinks service from early evening. They will want access to the fighters, and they will not consider themselves a security problem.
Practical measures
Simple controls prevent almost everything.
- A hard boundary between audience and fighter areas
- Named staff on each access point all night
- Officers around the ring apron, not only at the doors
- A plan for disputed results
- Managed dispersal and taxi marshalling
Talk to the venue early
Hotels and function suites often have licensing conditions requiring licensed staff. Confirm numbers with the venue before tickets go on sale.
