It is especially difficult for coaches from regions to bring the youngsters to a race abroad, therefore the possibility to gain experience is particularly important. The lack of experience this time was reflected in the ring where homeboxers had to strive to keep all three rounds.
Young boxing coach Sergey Ahmadulin told Latvian television in an interview that young boxers had been in the league in Lithuania only once in the past three years, because everything will happen in finance and in municipalities. Under these circumstances, young athletes try to keep up with their competitors.
Riga Open continues until Sunday.
