Aspirant Boxing South Africa (BSA) licensees might know their fate before the end of this week, so says acting BSA chief executive officer Erick Nsikayezwe Sithole.
Initially, those who underwent a BSA training and assessment course and also wrote tests were due to hear from the regulatory body in the middle of this month on whether they would be licensed for the 2023/24 financial year or not.
“It should be finalised soon. The approvals are going to be looked at before the end of this week,” Sithole said on Wednesday.
Licence applicants in Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal, Eastern Cape and Western Cape wrote tests under the supervision of BSA board member Khulile Radu.
There’s, however, no guarantee that applicants who were BSA licensees during the 2022/23 financial year would be licensed again. Applicants who received below 50 percent from the tests in the first phase were not licensed and some have decided to look elsewhere.
