Post by bongo »

usa boxing are taking the junior boxers to the international tournament in december 12 .why because they wdont have the money for juniors boxer. so if any junior boxer are planing to go yall are not going.i wonder why usa has money for the men to going to two tournaments with two months and the junior got to go to one this whole year these kids work hard for years so when they turn of age they can going to these international tournaments .thats just wrong .what do yall think about this? :bag:

Because the USOC has funding for the men (17 and above) because "men's" boxing is an Olympic sport.

Bongo, I don't disagree with you at all. Maybe with the new Youth Olympics, the NOC's will have additional monies for junior programs. You can, of course, ultimately blame USAB for its past, current and ongoing financial messes.
