Meanwhile, Westmeath is represented by two Mullingar boxers, Pat Stokes (46kg) from the Mullingar Shuffler Boxing Club, and Jason Donoghue (60kg), from the Olympic Boxing Club, which produced multiple European title-winner Joe Ward. This is the biggest medal haul that Ireland have brought home from the four underage European boxing tournaments held this year under the new global amateur governing body, World Boxing. Irish boxers also brought home three medals from their inaugural World Boxing Championships this year, including gold for Aoife O’Rourke.
