ZANTEL handed over to the Ministry of Spots, a world-class boxing ring as our support towards the sports development of Boxing in the country.
We believe that sports have a significant role to play in the country. If given the proper attention and investment, boxing can be a source of employment for our youth, entertainment as well as something that can promote Tanzania to the rest of the world.
We will continue to support the government through Ministry of Sports in ensuring Tanzanian players are enabled to present the country in international tournament.
