We are not signing on boxers at that tender age, the time will come, but we have not reached there yet. For now we want them to learn and have fun while the train” said Nortey.
“Through boxing we attract future scholars and present how ‘boxucation’ works. They receive weekly individual training at their gyms and collective training with our professional coaches every two weeks” he expressed.
