We are proud to share that Delicious Orie has been confirmed to represent team England and the Common Wealth games this summer, hosted in Birmingham. DJ will be representing England in boxing; he is a super-heavyweight. At 23, DJ has had a fantastic start to his career, from sparring with Anthony Joshua to bringing home the Bronze at the European Championships.
This is what he had to say once he heard the news-
"Ever since I found out Birmingham was going to be the host city it was a dream of mine to be able to compete there, so when I found out I was selected, it was basically a dream come true,"
TCHire are excited to be on this incredible journey and see what the future hold for this bright young talent! We hope you’ll all be tuning in to see the England team do us proud!
