Coaching From Grassroots Is Important, Says AIBA Instructor Andile Mofu

Coaching the coaches. That's what Andile Mofu has been up to off late. The 52-year boxing coach is a certified instructor with AIBA, world boxing's governing body, and coached South African pugilists between 1997-2012. Currently in Guwahati for the AIBA Youth Women's World Championships, the man from Port Elizabeth, is sharing tricks of the trade with local coaches. It's a part of AIBA's Gloves Up programme, that aims at grassroot level boxing coaches, rather than elite ones.
