The Intermediate Boxing Tournament conducted by the Amateur Boxing Association of Sri Lanka will be held on 28th, 29th and 30th of May at Sugathadasa Indoor Stadium starting at 5.30 p.m. each day.

This tournament is open to those boxers who are between 17 to 34 years of age and have not won at the finals of any meet conducted by the ABA/SL except the Novices and Junior Championships.

For the first time in the history of local boxing, the ABA hopes to conduct the tournament simultaneously on 2 boxing rings at the same venue to cope with the expected large number of entries and also to prevent boxing running into late night which is in convenient to both boxers as well as to officials.

Hence the ABA anticipates the full co-operation from all referees and judges to be present in time on all 3 days.

The preliminary weight-in preceded by the medical examination will be held on Tuesday 28th May between 8.00 a.m. and 10.00 a.m. at the same venue.

All competitors are expected to produce their medical record book at the medical examination.

Entries close on Saturday 25th May with Brigadier Jagath Jayasuriya, Secretary, ABA/SL at No. 53/2, Temple Road, Kalubowila, Dehiwela.
