The last World Junior events were held in 2015 – the men’s tournament was in St Petersburg, Russia, and the women’s was in Chinese Taipei. 

The last time Team Ireland contested in the Armenian capital was at the 2022 Men’s European Championships – Gabriel Dossen came home with middleweight gold, and Dylan Eagleson claimed bantamweight silver.
