Boxers will converge for the 7-day tournament designed to unearth more talents, encourage mass participation of clubs and all inclusiveness, serving as an outlet for pugilists to intensify their preparations for forthcoming national championships.
The championship will feature male and female boxers from the various registered boxing clubs in the State.
The concept of the Lagos State Individual Club Boxing Championship is to encourage clubs across the state and empower the youth, in line with Grassroots Sports Development.
