A flurry of punches is set to be thrown from tonight when the Guyana Boxing Association (GBA) stages its Terrence Ali National Open Championships at the National Gymnasium.
According to Technical Director (TD) of the association, Terrence Poole, the three-night championships will feature the nation’s elite pugilists vying for trophies and medals.
Poole told this publi
cation that he envisions in excess of 50 combatants in fistic action from gyms, including the Forgotten Youth Foundation, Tiger Eye, Pocket Rocket, Rose Hall Jammers, Essequibo, Young Achievers, Harpy Eagles, GDF, Republican and Police.
Bell time is 19:00hrs nightly.
Boxers who will excel at this event, will be on the shortlist to represent the Golden Arrowhead at the Caribbean Development Tournament scheduled for Barbados from December 9-13.
On the final day of this weekend’s fixture, a take away lunch will be held at the venue in an effort to alleviate some debts incurred, and also to help offset expenses for the team which will be selected for the Barbados event.
