The Boxers’ Association of Usmanu Danfodiyo University, Sokoto, has called on boxers and intending boxers within the school community to join the association.
The meeting, according to a flier released by the association, will be held on Sunday, 25th June 2023 at the School Stadium by 4:00pm.
Themed ‘The Face of UDUS Boxers’, the congress is aimed at teaching and introducing Danfodiyo students to methodology of self defense.
While speaking with the News Digest Press, the coach of the association, Abdul Wa’rith Oyekanmi said the program is organized to build health and increase strength.
“I’ve once been to the university of Ibadan and many universities in the south west, and what I observed is that as each university has their football team, they also have a boxers’ team.
“This made me discuss the issue of having a boxer association within the school with the newly elected sport director, Muftau Ibrahim A. and he gave me his official backing,” he said.
Interested members are advised to contact the coach via 07039423511 for proper registration or enquiries.
