(HBO) – Although boxing has been developing in recent years, it is considered as a potential sport and the athletes have competed and achieved medals in the national boxing competitions. However, the task of maintaining, developing and improving the rankings in regional and national competition is still difficult.

Lack of private gym, the athletes have to practice boxing under the stage of the provincial stadium.

In 2014, the province had its first boxing delegation competing at the Seventh National Sports Games in 2014 and the athlete Bach Thi Linh won the bronze medal in the content of boxing at 51 kg weight. At the eighth National Sports Games in 2018, boxing is one of three sports chosen to participate by the province to compete with the goal of achieving one bronze medal. To achieve this goal, the coaches and athletes have prepared the best conditions for psychology, health and tactics, striving to achieve the targeted goal.

Although it is a new sport and has been practiced and competed for about six years, there have been athletes competing and winning medals in regional and national competitions. However, the Coach Khuat Van Tuan, a Sports Gifted High School teacher, who has been involved in boxing since his early days, said: Even though this is the key principal sport, it is currently difficult for the development of boxing and gathering many excellent athletes competing in the regional and national competitions. In fact, due to fewer enrollment targets, the number of students enrolling in boxing at the Sports Gifted School is only 9 students. The school has no gym, no competition stages, little exercise equipment, low nutrition, etc. The coach Khuat Van Tuan added: To prepare to participate in the boxing competition at the Seventh National Sports Festival in 2018, in addition to the athlete Bui Thi Thao, the training committee called two athletes, Bach Thi Linh and Nguyen Thi Bich to gather for training the health, tactics, and psychology to be ready to participate in the competition. Currently, the training committee has developed a plan and a suitable training schedule for athletes, striving to achieve the goal.
