Hi Sultan - unfortunately, my computer has crashed twice in the past month and I am now playing catch up. I really do apologize for taking so long to answer you.
I don't know of any clubs in South New Jersey. If you email me at mel@amateurboxing.com, I will send you a contact in either Linden or Passaic who you can call for information.
