The tournament will be named the Dayals Steels Golden Gloves Championship and will be held next Friday and Saturday at the Stan Brown gym in Walu Bay, Suva.
FABA Board member Thomas Johansen says the cash sponsorship is a huge blessing for the national federation as it prepares for the Pacific Games.
Jay Dayal who is the owner and managing director says sports play an integral role in nation-building as it unites our citizens.
He adds they’re honored to be a part of this nation-building process.
