Our Story
Built by a champion. Run like a family.
Smithy's TGW Gym is a family-owned boxing and fitness facility in the heart of Toowoomba, founded by Brendon Smith — a globally respected boxing trainer who's spent his life in and around the ring.
What started as a place to train the next generation of Queensland fighters has grown into something rarer: a community gym that produces real champions, welcomes everyone, and treats every member like family. Whether you're preparing for your next fight, sharpening your skills, or just chasing a healthier lifestyle — there's a place for you here.
We don't run on hype, and we don't sell quick fixes. What we have is a coaching team that's been doing this for decades, a roster of fighters competing at every level, and a wall by the front door that tells you exactly who we are.
The Wall
The story's by the front door.
The first thing you see walking in off Anzac Avenue is the wall — a collage of the fighters, the fights, and the moments that built this place. It's not decoration. It's the record of everyone who's put the work in here, and a standard for everyone who walks in next.
The Facility
World-class. Right here in Newtown.
Our gym is fully equipped with three full-sized boxing rings and over forty specialty pieces of boxing and fitness equipment — punching bags, speed balls, reflex balls, treadmills and weights. Everything you need to train like a fighter, whatever level you're at.
