THE Dimple Boxing Club is preparing to make its presence felt in the local boxing scene, with seven of its boxers set to feature in the Islands Boxing Promotion event on Saturday, November 21 at the AD Patel College in Ba.
Based at Yalelevu in Ba, on the premises of the Dimple Group of Companies, the club has been operating for the past five years and is now setting its sights on bigger achievements.
Club president Hussain Shah said the upcoming promotion would be another important milestone for the club, which has been working hard to develop boxing talent in the Western Division.
Shah said the club had previously hosted Ba’s first-ever amateur boxing programme, featuring approximately 30 bouts involving amateur boxers. He said the club had since shifted its focus towards preparing its fighters for bigger opportunities in the sport.
“We have prepared boxers all the way from Ra, and those who have a heart for the club have come down to the gym to prepare for the upcoming Islands Boxing promotion event on November 21,” Shah said.
He said having seven boxers representing Dimple Boxing Club on one fight card was a significant achievement and reflected the commitment shown by the fighters, coaches and everyone working behind the scenes.
Shah acknowledged the courage and determination of the young boxers who had stepped forward to showcase their abilities and take the next step in their boxing careers.
“As far as preparations for these guys are concerned, I would say they have stepped up from the day the contracts were signed, and they are doing marvellously well,” he said.
Shah believes the fighters have the potential to deliver strong performances on fight night and bring recognition to the Ba-based club.
With seven fighters preparing to take the spotlight on November 21, Dimple Boxing Club will be looking to turn its hard work and dedication into memorable performances in the ring.
