Barefoot coach Tony Abbott said he's had nothing but good feedback from the sold-out Boxing at the Lake event in March.
"I'd love to put another one on. It was really successful. We've had good feedback from everyone in the boxing community as well as the local community," Abbott said.
"We even had more interest from other gyms who wished they could've come but couldn't get down so I'd like to do it again.
"Whether we can in the next 12 months, we'll have to see. We've got a pretty busy schedule."

Abbott said the Boat Club was the perfect setting for an entertaining 20-fight card.
"A bigger venue would be great but the Boat Club was sensational. It was a fantastic atmosphere and the people there were sensational, they really supported us," he said.
"I'd like to work with the same people again because they were so good."
The night featured eight boxers from the Barefoot gym, highlighted by the unveiling of former Commonwealth Games representative Regarn Simbwa in the main event.
After winning his first fight since moving to Wagga, Simbwa has had another four fights and remains unbeaten after claiming the Boxing NSW King of the Ring heavyweight title last week.
