TERRACE — Two Terrace
youths ,will make local boxing

tario,

Joey Losier and Darren: ‘Bell.
have been selected as - two. of.
seven boxers from across: the. .
province who will represent
B.C. at the .Canadian: Junior
National’ Championships April
18-21,

Terrace Boxing. Club. coach
Jeff Dilley has, been asked: by
the B.C}. Amateur’ Boxing
Association to coach the B.C.
junior team at 1991's nationals,.

They'll fly to Vancouver for
an intensive three-day training
camp at the BCABA's training
centre before heading onto On-
tario.

“I’m excited about it for the

-simple reason that this is the

first time I think .we've had na-
tional boxing competitors from
the northwest — certainly the
first time’ for Terrace,” says
Dilley.

Bell and Losier — both
14-year-old — have been raised
to. the 15- and- 16-year-old.
Junior C division to be eligible
to go to the nationals. ~~

“They've. Proved that. they
can compete in the higher
category with no problems at
all,’’ Dilley says. ‘'They’re
the. Lower
Mainland boxers in their divi-
sions. I’ve had to move them up
to get them éxperience,””

Dilley said he’s certain the
Terrace boxers will face tougher ‘
competition at ‘the nationals
than they have in B. c. “The

junior division in ‘a C, is weak
compared to their ‘eastern
counterparts,’? he added.
“There’s more intense competi-
tion,there’ and. the. boxers: are
more experienced.” ;

_ Despite the lack of conse
‘tion :in- junior’ boxing. in-B. C.,

and: in; the northwest. in pare _
tlcular,’ Dilley has ‘assembled any
‘club that i is gaining recognition

and respect throughout, the roe.
-vinee, . .

ATE seemis that the northwest

is producing a good crop . of

junior, boxers,’’ “he said. '"We

-had- phone. calls from, Toronto | a=

asking. the boys: to compete - ‘at

- the Canada Winter.Games this:

year — at Jeast until they realiz-
ed they're ‘still too young.”"
Dilley says Bell is one of the
best natural boxers ‘he’ Ss en-
countered, ‘And Joey. — I've

hever seen Anyone hit as hard as.

Joey does.*?
‘Both won ‘gold medals at the

Northern B.C, Winter Games,

and last. year defeated older,
more experienced ‘boxers to pick
up provincial titles...

Given. their:- ‘success sO far,
Dilley: sees no. feason to hold
them back: low;

“Everything I've shat for so
far with these kids has
worked,” he says, “‘so why not
keep ¢ on going?’? .
