Irish squad at Dublin Airport today
The eagles have landed.
Ireland’s medal-laden team arrived home from the European Youth and Junior Women’s Championships in Sofia, Bulgaria this afternoon via Dublin Airport.
The squad claimed six medals, two gold, one silver and three bronze, at the 29-nation tournament in the Bulgarian capital.
IABA President Pat Ryan, IABA CEO Fergal Carruth, IABA High-Performance Director Bernard Dunne and IABA Head Coach Zaur Antia were at Dublin Airport this afternoon to welome the team home.
The next European stop for Irish boxing is the European Schoolboy Championships in Valcea, Romania (July 17th/26th).
Ireland will also send an Elite squad to the European Union Women’s Championships in Cascia, Italy (August 4th/13th).
