What: In September 2009, I brought the CESBA team to the international base in Kandahar Afghanistan.We hosted a morale enhancing boxing show for the armed forces deployed there (view footage www.cesba.ca).It was a great honour to be on this mission and to tour the forward operating bases.

Our team met and spoke with many of our great Canadian Forces and International soldiers stationed there.It is vital that we demonstrate our support for the great men and women of our Canadian Forces at all times.I hope you are able to join us at this special inaugural event.

Thank you
