Bid Guidelines for Boxing Ontario for multiple tournaments

 

Provincial Championships

2012

 

In addition to the official sanction form provided with this document, the following is a listing of key points to consider when submitting a bid for the Championships:

 

·                     The selection of an appropriate venue that can house a regulation boxing ring and room for officials  and judges

·                     The ideal host venue and accommodation would be in the same location or very close (i.e. Hotel)

·                     The use of a hotel as a venue reduces travel expenses and makes it easier for everyone involved in the event

·                     It is important to negotiate a reasonable rate from the hotel- the room rate should be included in the bid proposal

·                     How many Doctors on each day of boxing

·                     Distance to nearest Hospital

·                     Number of weigh-in rooms and change rooms – separate for male and female

·                     Number of official scales and trial scales

·                     Will they have at least two glovers and a timekeeper

·                     The host must also provide a minimum of 2 volunteer s to operate computerized scoring – Boxing Ontario will provide training prior to the event

·                     Size of the venue – ensure there is enough room for vendors and Boxing Ontario booth

·                     Consider partnering with the hotel and your tourism board as both may have experience in bid submissions

·                     These championships are typically held in the last week of October or at the very latest the first week of November (Thursday to Sunday)
