Delighted to have bumped into @lasallebelfast past pupils @weerooster and @paddy_gal today. Great to hear they are doing great work coaching in
Schools. #truetoourschool
Unbelievable Kellie well done delighted for you 🥊🇮🇪
For all the years, all the rounds, all the joy - thank, you, Kellie.
Kellie Harrington has confirmed that her 101st international bout, where she claimed her historic 2nd Olympic Gold, was her last.
Her 19 year contribution to Irish Boxing, and Irish Society, is immense and immeasurable.

Another day light robbery in Pairs! Completely wrong taking peoples dreams away from them!
Daina Moorehouse is #Paris2024 Olympian, but exits at last 16
The boxers were level on four Judges' scorecards in to the last round, and the 4-1 decision went to home boxer, Wassila Lkhadiri
A superb performance by the Bray boxer.
Once an Olympian, always an Olympian.

Defending Olympic lightweight champion, #TeamIreland Kellie Harrington, is through to the #Paris2024 quarter finals.
She put on a masterclass of boxing to defeat Italy's Alessia Mesiano in the Last 16 by unanimous decision.
Kellie will box for a medal on Wednesday, against the winner of this evening's meeting between Kosovo and Columbia

Year 5 loved their boxing session today with Brendan Irvine. The boys and girls loved using their new skills from last week and trying them out with gloves and pads today 🥊 it was great fun and we are all looking forward to next week already! @weerooster @StOPPSBelfast @StOPPSPE
Huge thanks to everyone that has helped me over the past 17 years, it’s been one hell of a journey & one that I am immensely proud off. I am forever grateful for boxing and the opportunities that it gave me. Now for the next chapter of my life on the other side of the ropes! 💚🥊
"It was a very tough decision for me. I'd say I have only got comfortable talking about it over the past three or four months." @weerooster
