UCD Boxing

Hi,

This is the link to the map to show where the new gym is http://www.teampages.com/photo_albums/6951/album_photos/80733. We are starting training tonight from 5-7pm so it will be good to see everybody down. For those who have not boxed before please wait until full training begins, which is after Freshers Week.

Hi Everybody,

Hope that you all had a great time over the summer and that you are enjoying the last week or so.

Training is starting back on August the 24th from 5-7pm. We will now be training in our new gym. You can see an image on the photos section. The gym is located in the Philips Building/Newstead Building. To get to the gym walk through the car park that is behind the Sports Centre. Take the first right and you will see large, glass double doors to your left. This is the gym entrance.

I will put up a map to show everybody where it is.

Look forward to seeing everybody again.

Best,

Charlie

Dear All,
Peter Slattery from the Psychology department in UCD is doing research among martial artists, including boxers. He is looking for boxers with 1 to 2 years of experience and boxers with 2 to 5 years of experience.
For the research you will watch a couple of videos after which you are asked to answer a few questions. It takes 45 minutes and takes place on campus. Peter pays €25 for the inconvenience.

If you are interested, you can contact Peter on peter.slattery@ucd.ie or via 087 6442405

Dear All,
Tomorrow (22nd of April) is the last ordinary training. Friday there is no training due to the end of term festivities.
Over the summer training takes place once a week, on Wednesdays from 8 to 10 PM.

If there is no supervision, sparring is not an option. Feel free to use the bags, do pad work and shadow boxing, but sparring only takes place under supervision of Tommy, Charlie, Niall, Jack or myself.

I wish you all the best with the exams and hope you’ll enjoy the summer. See you all in September or at training over the summer,

Nanette

Hi,

Hope everybody enjoyed the break. Just to let you know that there will be meeting this Wednesday upstairs in the Student Centre (Blue Room). We have set a date of the 7th of April for a competition to be held in the Astra Hall.

Myself and Nanette will not be able to do the organising for this competition so we need people to come on board to get everything sorted. We will be there to let you know what needs to be done. All boxers who wish to fight on the 7th of April should be there. If you would like to get more involved in the club this is a great opportunity to see how this work.

While not to sound to extreme the bottom line is that if we don’t get a good team on board for this competition we will have to cancel it.

I look forward to seeing you there.

Best,

Charlie
