Founded in 1899, the SBAC quickly became a powerhouse in local boxing and wrestling, producing Olympic medalists, dominating Golden Gloves competitions, and serving as a vibrant social hub for the Soulard neighborhood. From thrilling matches and Big Band dances to fish fries and Christmas parties for children, the club has been a gathering place for generations.
Discover how this iconic institution weathered both glory days and hard times, emerging once again as a thriving center for friendship and athletic competition. Through captivating stories and historic images, this program celebrates the SBAC’s enduring legacy and its place in the heart of St. Louis.
