Mr. George Lamptey, who is a Board Member of the Ghana Olympic Committee (GOC) and a Technical Officer of the International Boxing Association (IBA) said it was his token to motivate the boxers and keep them in high hopes to go to Senegal and qualify for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.

 

Lamptey, who was at the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo when Ghana won the only bronze for Africa in boxing said the new Black Bombers are capable of doing better if they would be motivated.

 

“I have hope in the Black Bombers, I believe in the team, they are capable, they can win more medals for Ghana, I wish them well and I pray for success” he said.

 

He was happy to see light heavyweight, Seth Gyimah aka Freezy Macbones in the team.

Present at the presentation were members of the Amateur Boxing fraternity.

 

Some popular names in the team are Ornela, the female boxer based in the USA, Wahid Omar, Theo Allotey, Abraham Mensah and Joseph Commey aka ‘Jaguar’.
