IABA Recieve World Championships ‘Dispensation’
The IABA have revealed they have received ‘dispensation’ from the World Body with regard to the upcoming World Championships.
The World Championships will take place in Belgrade Serbia next month gloving off on October 26.
Countries were initially handed a September 20 deadline for team submission, which may have caused issues for the IABA as the National Elite Championships won’t be completed until the first weekend in October.
If the IABA were going to used to help with team selection a September date would prove too soon.
However, the IABA have confirmed they have been granted permission to register their selection at a later date.
The governing body confirmed: “Following dialogue with the World Body by the National Secretary Paddy Gallagher, the IABA have received a dispensation until the completion of our Championships to enter Irish boxers.”
The news just makes the already eagerly awaited National Elites, the first since 2019, that bit more exciting as fighters will no doubt be eager to impress Bernard Dunne, Zaur Antia, John Conlan and co in a bid to be sent to Belgrade.
