The club scored 25 points to finish in first position with second place going to Selebi-Phikwe based EMG with 12 points.

DTCB coach, Thebe Setlalekgosi was voted the coach of the tournament with Kagiso Bagwasi the best boxer of the tournament. Kutlwano Ogaketse was selected the most promising boxer and best bout was between Bagwasi and Kabo Seitshiro of EMG. Setlalekgosi told Mmegi Sport yesterday that he has been involved with boxing for a long time and it was the first time that a club has won five medals. He said that was a sign that they are doing things well.
