Scottish Amateur Boxing Association Rules 1959

I recently picked up this 1959 copy of the Scottish Amateur Boxing Association rule book.

This copy is signed by then secretary of the association, John Henderson.

If anybody reading knows of John Henderson, I'd be really interested in hearing from you so please leave a comment

  1. Hello - I'm John Henderson's son and he was indeed SABA secretary from the mid-1950s to 1970s. He was a top-grade international referee for many years and a senior AIBA official. He was very famous in Glasgow and travelled the world to boxing championships starting with the 1954 Empire Games in Vancouver, where three Scottish boxers won two Golds and a Silver. He had been a Scottish police heavyweight champion in his youth and was a big man both in size and personality. I have many fond memories of him
