Tanzania, June 25 -- Dar es Salaam. The eighth edition of the Chief of Defence Forces (CDF) Cup is set to usher in a new era for military boxing, with three championship belts up for grabs for the first time in the history of the tournament.

The move is expected to add a new level of prestige and competitiveness to one of the most popular disciplines in the annual games.

Scheduled for July 6 to 17 in Dar es Salaam, the CDF Cup 2026 will bring together athletes from various commands of the Tanzania People's Defence Force (TPDF) under the theme, "Peace, Unity and Solidarity for Nation Building."

However, much of the spotlight is expected to fall on the boxing competition following the introduction of title belts.
