You can be deployed with your Unit on overseas operations, including combat roles. If you are attached to an Infantry battalion for example, your secondary role would be working/training with them

As a HR specialist do you get to do extra sport after office hours like boxing for example. Thank you.

That would depend on what Regiment or Corps you would be attached to, but most units work on the same daily routine.

Boxing is big in the Army so yes. Good thing about the Army is you get to do it during working hours! If you are good enough you could spend a lot of time doing boxing for the regiment/battalion/Army

I’m looking to join the army very soon but I wanted to know if I would be able to spend my last year on school (year 11) in a army collage as I’ll be 16 just after I go into year 11
