The United Boxing Coaches Association(UBCA),are to meet the executives of the Ghana Boxing Authority(GBA) to discuss the roadmap for a proposed congress. The coaches who have been main advocates for the change in the leadership at the GBA boycotted a meeting last Thursday which was to decide a final road In an exclusive interview, Godwin Nii Dzanie Kotey (Coach Alloway) explained why they stayed away “We will just sit back to deliberate on what to do and take the next step. I believe that the invitation extended by the Ghana Boxing Authority to us was in the right direction. Nobody wants to break the neck of boxing in Ghana. We all want to move forward and that is what we want. It is just unfortunate that certain incidents happened that caused the chaotic situation in boxing,” he told Joy Sports. In another interview the spokesperson of the Ghana Boxing Authority, Mohammed Amin Lamptey has admitted that the proposed congress can be executed with all stakeholders contributing to the process. According to him the Coaches body is key to achieving this. The Ghana Boxing Authority has admitted that a proposed congress to elect a new executive cannot be executed without the United Boxing Coaches Association of Ghana. “We all agreed that we wanted to have a common committee to put together the modalities for the congress. But unfortunately, once we don’t have the coaches, the board has agreed that we re-invite the coaches to join us for a meeting set for October 2 so we can look at all the issues and set up a committee to draft a constitution,” Amin Lamptey said.
