Boxing coaches continue training sessions

The American Samoa Boxing Federation club’s coaching staff continued to help the boxers to keep up their speed, stamina and strategies even during the times between tournaments.

 

Coach Sanele Etuale of Faleniu, keeps the boxer trainees updated in sparring, running and technique. “If we stopped training the boxers, they would not be ready to box at the end of the year, in the tournament between the two Samoas,” he said.

 

Within the group, two female boxers are amongst the trainees and on Tuesday evening Samoa News observed Coach Sanele spending more time with them than any of the male boxers. Explaining his focus, the coach said, “Female boxing is now the focus of ASBF because it is easier to make a champion right now in that division than in the male divisions. It’s a new division and not many countries have female boxers in the ring yet.”

 

Let’s do it lady boxers, make a mark while we can!
