There was a carnival atmosphere in the popular Willow Park estate in Gorey last evening as large numbers of family, friends, supporters and admirers turned out in celebration to welcome home the new super hero in the boxing ring, the talented Kayleigh Byrne.
Featherweight Kayleigh brought the first ever international medal to Gorey Boxing Club when she took bronze for Ireland in the 2024 European Junior Championships in Sarajevo, Bosnia.
Team Ireland, who brought home two gold and five bronze medals from the championships also included Kalib Walsh from Wexford CBS who also secured a bronze medal.
