Housed in a refurbished former fire station, the club was renamed in memory of Eddie Heredia, its first champion who passed away from leukemia at age 17. This club offers structured youth boxing programs—from beginner to advanced Olympic-style—as well as fitness, conditioning, and character development. Its mission includes nurturing discipline, self-control, sportsmanship, healthy lifestyles, and personal growth through athletic training.

As an event or training venue, it supports community engagement through tournaments, exhibitions, outreach programs, and youth development initiatives. Notably, one of its members represented the U.S. at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, underscoring its legacy of nurturing talent.
