Uganda Boxing Federation (UBF) have set Thursday 23rd to Monday 27th September to hold the long waited National Technical Officers’ (N.T.O) certificate course.

The five day course will be held at Kati-Kati Restaurant in Lugogo, Kampala under the supervision of the International Boxing Associations (AIBA) and UBF capacity building officials.

The course is aimed at beefing up the technical ability and capacity of national referees and judges, coaches from affiliate clubs, clubs executive members, retired boxers with international experience and UBF executive, secretariat and officials.

It should be remembered that the N.T.O certificate became a requirement for any individual seeking for a UBF executive leadership position.

This came into effect after the passing and confirmation of the new amendments in the UBF constitution on 8th April 2021.

Only national referees and judges, coaches from affiliate clubs, clubs executive members, retired boxers with international experience and UBF executive, secretariat and officials are eligible for the course.
