Boxing championship in Zambezi
Katima Mulilo is lined up for exciting boxing as the national youth tournament will be hosted at the town in August.
The Namibia Boxing Federation will host the national elite and junior boxing championship in the Zambezi Region from 30 to 1 August.
The championship will see more than 100 boxers from 10 regions exchanging blows in order to become national champions.
The public relations officer of the NBF, Robert Pendapala Haihambo, said: “We would like to invite sponsors to come on board and assist the boxing federation with funds that can make this tournament a success.
“Namibia has so many talented boxers and I do believe that they will follow in the footsteps of the great Harry Simon and many others.
“The event will be bigger and better and that is why we invite as many people as possible to come to the event when it takes place.”
The Namibia Boxing Federation is an affiliated member of the Ministry of Sport, Youth and National Service through the Namibia Sport Commission.
It is also an affiliate of the IOC through the International Boxing Association (AIBA) and NNOC.
The hosting of the national elite and junior championship is in line with the federation's mandate, which is to organise national or regional competitions as enshrined in article 2 (b) of its constitution.
The Federation has secured a venue for the event and meals for the 100 boxers by means of a sponsorship from local company Kamunu Holdings.
This event serves as a talent identification platform and will also be used to select Namibia's national team.
