Monkstown Boxing Club have started their second training session outdoors following the closure of their training facility.
The boxing club has been an anchor tenant of the county council owned Mounttown Community Facility since the facility opened in 2010. The short notice closure left over one hundred boxers, including promising boxing stars, without a place to train.
A second public training session took place today outside County Hall in Dun Laoghaire to protest against the closure. Boxing club members have received support from many public figures, including Richard Boyd Barrett, who attended the first street training session on Wednesday.
