Weigh in TBC

First bout TBC - all bouts will be as per program

Please follow all COVID 19 instructions, you must sign in as per the venues policy.

No late nominations will be accepted.

A number of bouts will be matched for Challenge Champion Belts - these bouts can encompass any division, age group and even experience category - the important element will be that they be competitive bouts that spark interest and future challenges in that weight division. While we cannot choose every person that won a Queensland Title in 2020 for very obvious reasons we have tried to choose a number of competitive weights and a variety of age groups. This is the first Challenge Tournament - there will be more and with the help and support of our Boxing Family and sponsors we will continue to add divisions. 

It is competitions like this one that we are sure will unearth the talent and potential we have in Queensland, perhaps boxing for a trophy at this tournament and a Challenge Belt at the next. We just hope you are as excited as we are about the format of this competition.

Should any boxers remain unchallenged for a Challenge Belt Bout they cannot retain the belt and Boxing Queensland will determine another suitable match from those who have nominated for the tournment to box for the Challenge Belt.
