Boxing Club

A feature of the boxing Club's programme for this year was the early start made with the training preparations for the Easter Tournament. A younger, and more enthusiastic, coach, Mr. Roy Brien, was engaged, and the trials for the selection of the Easter team spread over several nights. Instead of being picked within a week of the tournament, as has been the custom hitherto, the team was chosen a month before, and received a more specialised training at the hands of our coach, with pleasing results, in that the tournament bouts between our representatives and those from the other colleges, were closely fought contests.

The Club is continuing its practices throughout the second term, and it is pleasing to note that the interest has revived very greatly within the past few months. All that we require is keenness and a sufficient number of participants and the standard of boxing in this College will undoubtedly improve.
