African Games: National Boxers Targets More Medals

All the boxers selected by the Ghana Boxing Federation (GBF) for the 13^th African Games are anxious and eager to make names for themselves.

The boxing team, which has been training seriously on their own at their clubs before they were called up for a training camp in Cape Coast, wants to be remembered as heroes and champions after the Games dubbed ‘Accra 2023’.

As some professional boxers like Henry Malm, Mohammad Aryeetey, and Olympic bronze medalist Samuel Takyi have decided to help the nation at the All 13th African Games in Accra coming up on March 8th–24th, it is now up to the government and people of Ghana to offer them massive support and encouragement.

The training drills are led by the renowned Dr. Coach Ofori Asare (Head Trainer of the National Team) who is also very hopeful that Ghana wants to sweep all the medals in Boxing at the 13th African Games.

Assisting the celebrated trainers are Vicent Akai Nettey (head coach of Attoh Quarshie Boxing Gym) and Daniel Larteykwei Lartey (head trainer of Fit Square Gym), together with Frank Addo and Elvis Robertson from the Wisdom and Akotoku Academy Boxing gyms, respectively.

News from the camp states that the boxers are happy and in a good mood, and they are hoping to give their best to put the nation on the map when the 13th African Games begins on March 8th.
