Fiji Amateur Boxing head coach Cam Todd is calling out to the general public of Navua to come out in numbers this Saturday to witness the first-ever amateur boxing tournament to be held in the area.

Todd says that there has been a lot of interest among the youths of Navua since conducting a boxing clinic in the area earlier this year, and intends to cultivate and grow the sport in surrounding communities.

“We’ll have about 25-35 fights, so it’ll be a really good Saturday afternoon. So come and watch the boxing, watch all the new young talent come through, it’ll be a lot of fun for everyone.”
