World Youth medallists to be called into boxing national camp

Hindustan Times  

In a bid to find new talent in boxing ahead of the second Paris Olympics qualifier in February, the Boxing Federation of India has proposed to call World Youth Championships medallists directly into the national elite camp and also give them the opportunity to be part of the evaluation process provided they fulfil the criteria. The three world youth medallists to be called for the national camp are -- Vishvanath Suresh, Ashish and Vanshaj. However, after the performance of the men's team at the Asian Games in Hangzhou, where they failed to win even a single quota for the Paris Olympics, the High Performance Unit, led by HPD Bernard Dunne, felt they need to look beyond the present pool in some of the weight categories and suggested that talented youth boxers be made part of the national camp. Also, the three World Championships Medallists -- Deepak Bhoria, Md Hussamuddin, and Nishant Dev and Asian Games bronze medallist Narender Berwal will get a direct entry into the national camp, it has been learnt.
