On December 12th all the Larriers went on tour to the Nationl Stadium to cheer on our lads in the IABA/DCC Dublin Primary Schools Boxing Exhibition. It was a great day out with some super bouts. Our boxers even got to have Olympic gold medal boxing legend Michael Carruth as a corner man!
Well done to the five Larrier legends Cian, Dylan, Johnny, Dillon and Kian who fought on the day and collected their Gold Boxing Award Certificates and gold medals.
Well done also to the thirty plus Larriers who completed the Bronze Boxing Certificate back in September/October and those who contiued and achieved the Silver Certificate in November. Many will be back to go for gold next September.
Our sincere thanks to Paul Quinn, Paddy, Michael Carruth and all the IABA/DCC team for this super initiative. We especially thank them for the opportunity the lads trying for the Gold Certificate got to train at Ireland's High Performance Boxing Gym and to meet and watch our Olympic Boxing heros in training.
Some day it could be us!
A special word of thanks to Dublin Bus, especially Eugene and Mark, who always get us there and back again and without whom there would be no Larriers on Tour at all.
