ESCOT - Emanuel Steward Champions of Tomorrow - is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit youth development and boxing program serving youth ages 8-18 in Westland, Michigan. And it's 100% free to participate.


Rooted in the legendary legacy of Hall of Fame trainer Emanuel Steward and the world-famous KRONK Boxing Gym, ESCOT goes far beyond boxing. We build champions in life - developing young people through academics, athletics, leadership, and community service.


Founded by Jeff Styers in partnership with Emanuel Steward's family, ESCOT carries forward Emanuel's lifelong mission of mentoring youth from Detroit and surrounding communities. More world champions were produced through the KRONK tradition than any other gym in the world. Today, we channel that legacy into life-changing programming for the next generation.


What We Provide (at no cost):


- Boxing training for ages 8-18
- Academic support and tutoring
- Leadership development
- Community service opportunities
- Mentorship from coaches and community leaders


Our Promise:


- 100% of youth join ESCOT at no cost
- 100% of donations go directly to ESCOT youth
- 100% of volunteers make a difference


Follow us to stay connected with our champions, our community, and our upcoming events - including Fight Night 2026, honoring the legacy of Emanuel Steward.
