Content review requiredThe ladies' categories above are internally inconsistent in the source: items 6 and 7 are both named “Light Heavy weight”, item 8 (Above 76 kg) precedes item 9 (Above 71 kg), and there is a gap between 71 kg and 76 kg. The list is reproduced unchanged; it must be corrected at source before this page ships.

Content review requiredA second, different set of weight categories appears on the fees page of the source site. The two sets disagree. Confirm which is current.

Content review required“Walter weight” appears throughout and is presumably “Welter weight”; “eight ounce oglove” is presumably “eight-ounce glove”. Both are carried as published rather than silently corrected.
