Question
I am interested in registering for the 2008 Golden Gloves competition (Texas), but I am not sure how to register.   www.goldenglovesofamerica.com is not longer in service.   The new website, http://www.goldengloves.us/corpsite/application/index.php   does not have info for registration.

Answer
Hi Kevin,
Thanks for the question. Your best bet is to go through your local boxing committee (LBC) to get registration information. If you need assistance with that piece, let me know. Or, you can go to the USA Boxing website (www.usaboxing.org) and check for your LBC info (I did a cut and paste from the website for all the LBC's covering Texas to save you some time).
Let me know if you need more info!

I hope this helps, Kevin.
Thanks again for writing!

Regards,
Lian
