Sub-Junior boxing nationals to commence from Aug 7 in Greater Noida

New Delhi: The 4th Sub-Junior (U-15) Boys and Girls National Boxing Championships will be held from August 7 to 13 at Galgotias University in Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh, the Boxing Federation of India (BFI) said on Tuesday.

The event will see the participation of over 700 young boxers, including 400 boys and 300 girls aged between 13 and 14, who will compete across 15 weight categories.

As part of BFI’s broader vision to build a robust grassroots-to-elite pathway, the Sub-Junior Nationals serve as a crucial platform to identify young talent and prepare them for higher levels of competition.

The event follows the successful conduct of the men’s, women’s, and junior nationals earlier this year, competitions which have already produced international medallists and future stars. Haryana (Girls) and Chandigarh (Boys) enter this edition as the defending champions from the 3rd Sub-Junior Nationals.

Boxers will compete under World Boxing Technical Rules, with three rounds of 1.5 minutes each, with a minute’s rest in between rounds. A 10-point scoring system shall be followed. Medal winners from the REC Combined Talent Hunt 2024 are also eligible, making the competition even more competitive. (IANS)
