Team Boxing Championships.—The Annual Team Boxing Championships of the Royal Air Force are being held this year at Cranwell on February 22 and 23. This is actually the first time the Team Championships have been held, as the meeting arranged last year had to be cancelled at the last minute owing to industrial trouble. The Air Force at home has been split up into " Groups " for purposes of entering teams, and each group may enter a team of officers and a team of airmen, each team entering one competitor in each weight. Boxing is becoming increasingly popular in the Air Force, particularly among the airmen, and all the competitions are well supported. With the approach of the Imperial Services Boxing meeting at Halton Camp, a careful watch is being kept for any new talent, as the Air Force has recently lost the services of Flight Lieut. P. W. Smith, who won the Light Weights (Officers) at the I.S.B.A. Meeting in 1920 and 1921, and also of A/C. Mills, who won the Lightweights (Other Ranks) in 1921 75
