Carndonagh Boxing Club held a tournament on Good Friday night in their new clubhouse.

Former Irish champion Jessica Clarke turned in an impressive performance to claim a unanimous decision win over Carrickmore’s Anne Tanney.

Dominic O’Donnell was on fire for a win over Dunree’s David Gallinagh while James Devlin overcame Barney Corcoran.

Illies Golden Gloves middleweight Brian Elliott defeated Carrickmore’s John Conlon in another of the leading contests.

Carndonagh’s star turn, nine-time Irish champion Labhaoise Clarke, was presented with the Karl Cantwell Memorial Cup, awarded to Carn’s most successful boxer of the year.
