Nassau, Bahamas - Kayla Johnson of The Bahamas Boxing Federation leaves next week for a
high-level training course in Mexico.
Coach Johnson was cited as a
‘history-maker’ by Bahamas Olympic Committee and Bahamas Boxing
Federation President Wellington Miller. “…this is an historic first for
women’s boxing and boxing generally in The Bahamas,” said Miller;
“Women’s boxing is a fast growing sport around the world and when Coach
Johnson returns, we hope that she will be able to capture the
imagination of young Bahamian women and attract some of them into the
fine art and the sweet science of boxing.”
