The Spike or Victoria University College Review 1934

[sub-subsection]

The inclusion of Boxing was suggested in 1913, by Otago delegates, but all the other delegates voted against the proposal. Early in 1914 it was again suggested by Otago but there was still no enthusiasm, and it was not until Tournament was resumed after the War, in 1919, that approval was given. The first contest was held in 1920 and the event has since become one of the most popular in Tournament.

Average success only has come our way in Boxing. A strong team brought back the Shield in 1930 and we have tied with the other Centres on two occasions.
