We\u2019ll have to conduct training cycles not only for coaches and judges, but also for officials, which will be good for the province,\u201d he emphasized.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the state of the sport in Hui\u0301la, Carlos Lui\u0301s said it should be better, as there is a willingness on the part of those involved to work, and he hopes for results in terms of local quality and in competitions with other provinces.<\/p>\n<p>He recommended that sports associations legalize themselves and have their boxers registered, as well as all their members, so that FABOXE (the Hui\u0301la Boxing Federation) can have organized statistics to direct projections in terms of training.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the boxing ring, Carlos Lui\u0301s said there is willingness and the province will have one within three months; however, he recommends that the location where it will be set up be properly prepared so that the investment is not vandalized.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the training center project, he emphasized that they are working towards it and currently need approval for the desired area, but the goodwill makes all the difference in realizing the intention.<\/p>\n<p>Among the challenges faced by clubs and academies of the sport in Hui\u0301la are the lack of materials and equipment, a ring for training and tournaments, and permanent sponsorships to support participation in national championships and other activities.<\/p>\n<p>The possible candidacy of Hui\u0301la to host the African championship has filled Algeria with sports leaders, who foresee it as an incentive for the sport, aiding the technical development, especially of boxers, coaches, and referees.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ap-article-footer-note\">Find more news and analyses on <span class=\"ap-highlight-country\">Angola<\/span> on the <span class=\"ap-highlight-brand\">Africa Press<\/span> website<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Angola.
