Papua New Guinea Defence Force Head Quarters Murray Barracks has handed over its gym keys to the Kickboxing Federation for Kick-Boxing Federation to use the gym for its training sessions. Papua New Guinea Kick Boxing Federation (PNGKBF) Head-hunter and President Mr Stanley Nandex stated he is grateful for PNGDF Head Quarter for having the trust in PNGKBF and for giving them the opportunity to use the Murray Barracks Gym. “This is something we always wanted, and now our fighters can have a place to lift weights and also use the gym hall for their training.” “All our best fighters will be at Murray Barracks; this gym is now our professional training camp.” Nandex highlighted that over the last 28 years the PNGKBF has been operating on the Armature level, developing Armature fighters but all this will now change. He added that it is about time PNGKBF needs to come out and expose its fighters overseas and this is exactly what is going to happen moving forward. “PNGKBF will be looking now at commercializing the sport so that our top fighters can get exposure outside of the country.” Mr Nandex further added that this is the way to go and PNGKBF is grateful to PNGDF Head Quarters at Murray Barrack for their partnership, as more can be accomplished with a great venue readily available now for the fighters to use. “In exchange for using the Murray Barracks gym, we will be giving free combat, self-defence, kick boxing trainings and discipline trainings to the soldiers at Murray Barracks.”
