BBC. 2012. London 2012: Olympics women's boxing skirts issue to be decided. bbc.com (January 24): http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/boxing/16608826.stm

Amateur boxing chiefs are unlikely to make an announcement soon on whether female boxers will be made to wear skirts at the London Olympics. The Amateur International Boxing Association (Aiba) met last week to make recommendations on the issue.
But Aiba say they “will not reveal the content of internal discussions”.
The world governing body’s president will now review the recommendations, with a final decision still expected to be weeks away.
