The first ever St. Lucia National Amateur Boxing Association (SLABA) Championships will take place in Vieux-Fort at the Philip Marcellin Arena on September 17 and 18 with 25 confirmed entries.
The entrants include the three boxers who will be going to the Commonwealth Games, along with boxers who represented St. Lucia at the 2009 OECS Championships in Martinique and Guadeloupe.
