White collar boxing a huge success.

Last Saturday the rematch between ourselves and Trim took place in the Trim G.A.A.hall.Actually the Trim G.A.A.Club and trim Celtic were involved on the Trim side.
Personally I had severe doubts on whether the level of support would hold up in these strained times.I worried unnecessarily.The Dunderry people came up trumps again and supported it in droves.Take a bow all concerned.
It takes some guts to box in front of your peers and there is no hiding place in a boxing ring.These volunteers are the attraction and fair dues to them.
I was late for the contests involving Shane Maguire and Kevin Slattery but hear they put on a great show,with Maguire winning and Slatts giving it his all,as on the field of play.In no particular order I saw the bouts involving Bob Doherty,Alan Healy,Andy Coogan,John Prendergast,Killian Minogue.T.J.Garry,Aaron Scannell,and a number of lady boxers from Trim.
Good honest endeavour and great entertainment at short notice.
John Joe Nevin from Mullingar gave an exhibition match .Now there is a man that can box.
All in all it was a great effort and a most enjoyable night.
