ABS is pleased to provide the latest update on the seventeen strong Development Squad team competing against some of Ireland’s finest Juniors at the Rochestown Park Hotel in Cork on 12 May 2012.
The team arrived safe and sound at the recently built Cork airport at approximately 10.30pm on 11 May 2012. After clearing customs the team were met by AIBA representatives and shuttled by minibus to the luxurious Rochestown Park Hotel, the venue for this evening’s dual international. Once checked in it was off to bed for the team.
This morning, 12 May 2012, the team were up early for breakfast for 8.30am then a team meeting was held. Prior to breakfast weights were checked and everyone of the team was bang on weight. Following this our boxers were allowed to relax within the confines of the hotel until 11am when they took part in a light session in the grounds of the hotel. Following lunch and more relaxation time, the team re-convened for the weigh in and medicals which were all completed by 4.30pm.
A light lunch was provided at 5pm and then the team returned to their rooms for some final rest prior to the action commencing at approximately 7.30pm tonight.
Live results will be posted as they happen and a selection of photos will follow.
