    Amateur Boxing corner requirements? Trainers?

    I've been training for about 6 years with a couple different instructors , a mix of Brazilian jiu-jitsu, Boxing, Krav, some Muay Thai.. all with enormous strenuous training exercise routines , road work , sparing , and daily weight lifting/calisthenics which i've been doing for 11 years now. The past 7 months i've gravitated more towards boxing than anything else and i've adjusted my daily workout regimen specifically for boxing.
    I just recently got my amateur boxing license and i'd like to do my first bout ..

    Do all USA boxing sanctioned bouts require 1 or 2 certified trainers in your corner? Do all bouts have this requirement or just tournaments?
    The folks who were training me aren't too local so i've been looking for a new trainer mostly so I can participate in bouts .. I've adopted my initial training regimen from my trainers, added more to it and have continued training myself unless i'm sparring or doing mitt work where I have another set of eyes who can critique and assess what i'm doing... I train every day 7 days / week.

    i'm in CALIFORNIA , LBC33

          Find a gym that's associated with the USABF organization. Check the internet for gyms/clubs in your area using USABF as a heading. One licensed corner man is sufficient in most cases and a help or second is allowed them.
          You may try your city and state licensing department for sports. They should have a listing of organizers who put on shows at different arena's. Those people would need to license their event to attain police, fire and emergency assistance at the venue.
          Good luck Ray Corso.

            Check some of these.

            I used to be familiar with that area and there were many gyms in and around Long Beach. Some of them must still be there? They can get you started.

              This is even better. There are tons of good gyms around, filled with people that can get you where you are trying to go.
