MEETING OF LUCAN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, June 25, 2013

QUESTION NO. 14

QUESTION: Councillor C. Jones

"To ask the Manager if the Council would work with Esker Boxing Club in relation to its plans to hold an international boxing Tournament in early 2014 in Lucan in relation to a suitable venue and whether Lucan Sports and Leisure Centre would be available for that purpose?"

REPLY:

A meeting has been held between the Manager of Lucan Leisure Centre and the Secretary of Esker Amateur Boxing Club to examine the feasibility of hosting a boxing event in 2014. The club have been requested to develop a plan and a second meeting is scheduled. There may be logistical issues with hosting such an event in the Lucan Centre given its age and condition. Every effort will be made to assist the Esker Club in hosting this sporting event.
