    Ep 29: WIT Vikings Boxing Club

    This week, host Jack Lyons is joined by Neil Gough, coach with the WIT Vikings Boxing Club and boxer Mikey Keating to gain an insight into one of the most popular clubs on campus. Great to hear the plans for the future as well as hear of some high profile names who have come through the club, including Billy Walsh. As sport in colleges across the country is on the back burner due to current restrictions, it gives us a chance to shine a spotlight on our clubs and ensure students know once restrictions ease, we will be back up and running
