Caribbean Schoolboys’ and Juniors Boxing ChampionshipGBA begins preparations for title defence
Cuban Boxing Coach Francisco Roldan will be part of the team of coaches assisting the boxers preparations.
Next Sunday, the Guyana Boxing Association (GBA) will be holding the first of several Pepsi Mike Parris under-16 and junior competitions that will mark the commencement of preparations for the Caribbean Junior and Schoolboys’ tournament which will be held from August 16-19 in Guyana at the National Gymnasium.
For the first time in this competition; which was the brainchild of the Steve Ninvalle headed GBA, Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico have been invited.
According to a release from the GBA, it was noted that Puerto Rico have already confirmed their participation for the tournament, and with such news, the GBA posited that Guyana will have to step up their preparation since this island is one of the better boxing nations in the region.
Guyana has won the previous three editions of the competition and this early preparation indicates how serious the GBA are at solidifying their dominance at the youth level in the Caribbean.
