It is with great pleasure that I announce the Carey College boxing team's outstanding performance at the TB Jayah Memorial All-Island Boxing Championship, held in Kandy over six days from September 8 to 13, where they secured both a gold and a bronze medal.

Anton Shanon claimed the bronze medal, while in the over-81 kg heavyweight category, Yaeesh Tareef Hassen fought through four preliminary matches against formidable opponents. In a fiercely contested final, he went toe-to-toe for all three rounds against a strong contender from St. Sylvester's College, Kandy, proudly displaying the Carey spirit inside the ring to secure the gold medal. Notably, this triumph meant Carey College successfully challenged St. Sylvester’s boxing dominance right in the heart of Kandy. Furthermore, our athlete managed to shatter the long-held notion that it is impossible to defeat a Sylvesterian boxer in a final match in Kandy.

My heartfelt gratitude goes out to the coaching staff standing behind this victory—Rajitha Liyanage, Anil Jayalath, Lakshman Mapatuna, and former St. Sylvester's coach Bandula Gamage, who joined our team in Kandy—as well as the Principal, the Teacher-in-Charge of Boxing, parents, and our esteemed alumni who have always stood behind us as our greatest source of strength. Finally, I extend my deepest appreciation to everyone who assisted in various ways, including all officials of the Boxing Association. I kindly ask for your continued support and strength to help our boxing team keep the name of Carey shining brighter than ever.
