Golden Gloves
The Golden Gloves is the name given to annual competitions for amateur boxing in the United States. The tournament's sole material award was a tiny golden glove, symbol of an amateur championship, which went to the winner of each weight division, thus, the name "Golden Gloves". The Golden Gloves is often the term used to refer to the National Golden Gloves competition, but it also can represent several other amateur tournaments, including regional golden gloves tournaments and other notable tournaments such as the Intercity Golden Gloves, the Chicago Golden Gloves, and the New York Golden Gloves.
