Monkstown Boxing Club members have been locked out of their facilities again with no advance notice.
Coaches previously spoke out when the club building was closed by Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council for the midterm break in October, forcing its members to train outside on the streets. Boxers say that although the facility was also shut over the Christmas break, access in recent months has improved until the recent incident.
Boxers Jack Marley and Sean Mari, who are training in advance of the Olympic qualifiers this June, turned up at the facility for a recovery session this morning - but were met with cordoned off doors. Monkstown boxing coaches James Doyle and Donal Fitzgerald say that the facility has reopened since Monday.
