    My Dad (Sean Kennedy) lived on Georges Quay with his 6 brothers. (Kennedys Bar)

    I recently found out that they all boxed and that my grandfather, John Kennedy, helped found a boxing club around that time.

    Does anyone have any information as to what club they might have boxed for.

    Many thanks

    Kennedy name rings a bell. Possibly Avona BC?
