Boxer secures silver at national champs
Shane du Plooy, a talented boxer from the Vikings Boxing Club, secured a well-deserved silver medal at the South African National Boxing Organisation National Boxing Youth and Elite Championships. The championships, which took place earlier in July in Pretoria, saw over 100 fights from top boxers across the country. Shane fought in the welterweight category (67kg) and put on an impressive display, winning his quarterfinal bout with a technical knockout and his semifinal bout with a knockout. Although he lost in the finals with a 2–1 division decision, Shane's performance was commendable. 'I'm proud of my silver medal,' Shane said, beaming with pride, adding that his opponent at the national championships is the one he defeated at Gauteng Champs. His coach and father, Hendrik du Plooy, couldn't agree more. 'We worked very hard, and it was his first time going to the SA Championships,' Hendrik said. 'We are very proud of him, and he is bringing gold next year.' Shane's determination and skill in the ring have earned him recognition, and it's clear that he has a bright future ahead of him in the world of boxing.
