Callum Walsh
Nineteen new Irish champions were crowned at the National U/18 Men’s and Women’s Championships at the National Stadium in Dublin tonight.
European Youth and Junior champions Daina Moorehouse and Callum Walsh both had their hands raised in victory, along with Jude Gallagher, Brandon McCarthy and Caitlin Fryers.
All five are part of an 11-strong Irish squad for next month’s AIBA World Youth Men’s and Women’s Championships in Budapest, Hungary.
McCarthy claimed the second of two belts for the St Michael’s Athy BC after Terry Donoghue beat Belfast’s Danny Duffy in the flyweight decider.
Kane Tucker also emerged victorious while Edward McDonagh secured the last title of the evening in the ring.
Forty seven bout were completed over the course of the tournament over the last three weekends.
Irish amateur boxing is proudly sponsored by Liffey Crane.
