ISLAMABAD — Karachi’s Lyari neighborhood has received its first portable boxing ring to promote women’s boxing and provide young female athletes with better training opportunities. The ring, donated by Sehan Vital Fusion, was unveiled during a female boxing exhibition at TMC Bhutto Wala School on Juma Baloch Road in Agra Taj Colony, near the Pak Shaheen Boxing Club.
The exhibition featured six bouts in the 26kg, 30kg, 40kg, 42kg, 46kg, and 50kg weight categories, with young boxers from clubs and institutions across Karachi participating. The event attracted a large number of residents, schoolchildren, and boxing enthusiasts. The winners included Hafifa of Shaheed Zahid Hussain Boxing Club, Nazmeen Sanghar of Pak Shaheen Boxing Club, Hoorian of Farid Colony Boxing Club, Eman of Sindh Muslim Boxing Club, Seema of Faqeer Colony Boxing Club, and Manahil of BBSUL. Speaking on the occasion, Sehan Vital Fusion President Dr. Naseem Shekhani said the initiative aims to address the shortage of sports facilities in underserved communities and ensure that financial limitations do not prevent talented children from pursuing their ambitions.
“Our fundamental objective is to ensure that children from underserved backgrounds are never held back simply because they lack access to basic facilities,“ he said.
