Another awesome day in Galway at the second round of the League. Despite losing a lot of teens to exams there were still over 90 competitors getting stuck in at the Kingfisher Sports Hall.
A record number of finishes at this event, you could see that none of the fighters were willing to accept a draw and everyone worked really hard to finish.
As always there are a number of people without whom the event couldn't have happened -
First and foremost all the competitors that made the trip to Galway for the event, from Counties as far flung as Donegal, Dublin, Derry, Cork, Limerick Wexford, Waterford and a multitude of others.
The referees for calling it straight down the middle all day Dan, Tim and Paul. Being a League ref is a thankless task to be sure, and the guys deserve hefty kudos for doing as good a job as they did.
Ollie, Sean, Ruth, Tom and Dave for keeping the event running so smoothly and getting us out in record time.
Xtravision for sponsoring Fight of the Day and FightLord for their continued support.
