Guyana Boxing Association to stage DDL U16 tourney Saturday
The Guyana Boxing Association (GBA) will stage the Demerara Distillers Limited (DDL) sponsored Under-16 Boxing competition on Saturday at the Andrew ‘Sixhead’ Lewis Gym in Albouystown starting at 10:00am.
This is the third competition being sponsored by DDL for this year among the young boxers, with programmes in Georgetown and Berbice previously. 
Saturday’s action will see 12 bouts being contested and the best amateur boxers from around the country will be on show. Gyms from all the various Regions are scheduled to be represented.
This has been a very active year for the GBA, more so the latter half. GBA President Steve Ninvalle expressed heartfelt gratitude to DDL and the principals there for their assistance and the desire to see the relationship continue next year as the association seek to forge ahead with its plans.
He noted that a similar vein as this year will continue next year and heighten as they focus on their road to Rio programme to ensure that Guyana is adequately represented and medal at the Brazil Olympics kicks into higher gear.
