Bray Boxing Club
The club originally was founded in 1996, and over the years has gone from strength to strength. The club runs out of their newly refurbished boxing gym down the harbour. The club has had great success and is the training ground of Katie Taylor, our three times World Champion and winner of an Olympic Gold Medal. The club made history in 2012 when it became the first boxing club in the world to have both a male and female boxer at the same Olympics when Adam Nolan joined Katie on the Irish Boxing Team.
Since then the club has only gotten stronger. For more information:
