Botswana Boxing Association

Profile

Boxing in Botswana started in Lobatse in the sixties. By then the sport was played in a self made Boxing ring which was located at the Botswana Meat Commission (BMC). This was the innovation of the late R.D. Molefe, the Association Life President. BMC was the only club in the country hence it relied on the challenge matches with clubs from Mafikeng and Kimberly.

The Botswana Amateur Boxing Association (BABA) was registered with the Registrar of Societies in 1974. The Association’s first major event was an invitation to take part in the Federation of East, South Central Boxing Association (FESCAABA) Championships held in Zimbabwe in 1982.

The Association also started competing in the All Africa Games in 1987 in Nairobi Kenya. The Association started Competing in the Olympics held in South Korea in 1988. The Association has also competed in Major Competitions such as the Common-Wealth Games, Common-Wealth Championships, Africa Championships, Zone Six Championships and AIBA ranking Tournaments.
