A total of 97 boxers from 15 clubs are taking part in this important event. The clubs are drawn from Tanga, Dar es Salaam, Kagera, Arusha, Iringa and Dodoma.

“This is one of our premier competitions I’m very impressed with the huge entry,” said Willilo.
“Defending champions JKT Makau Makuu have won the tournament four times in succession and have been taunting their rivals Ngome to be ready to cheer them for another stellar performance.”
Boxing analysts opine while the defending champions JKT Makau Makuu are favoured to maintain their domination, this time around they face formidable opposition from Ngome, Magereza and Police with Ngome vowing to end the domination of JKT.
The finals are slated for Saturday, September 20, and from the look of things a pitched battle is in the offing.
