This is when they were trying to show what female boxing, that it could go, that it wasn't anything to be frightened of for girls, and it was outstanding.
And I remember saying to Sadie Duffy, who was on the committee with me at the time,
if this is what female boxing is about, well, I'm in.
Because in the beginning, I was nervous because of breast cancer and those kind of things, you know.
I'd say even at 15 you could see it.
You could even see it at 15, you know.
I mean, she trained with boys.
She boxed as a bi with a helmet because there was no female contest at that time.
It was around 2001, 2002 when female boxing was allowed in Ireland.
You know, sorry, Ciarán, a lot of clubs were nervous of taking females into their clubs.
they probably wouldn't have, we say, a female coach there at the time, you know.
And they were nervous.
It's no good saying they weren't.
And I'd say mostly that would have been concern for clubs, you know.
But Katie never let it hold her back.
Even at the beginning when she went away for the first maybe one or two, her dad paid for that and brought her away.
And then as she progressed to Europeans and Worlds, then at that stage female boxing was in Ireland.
And
Katie would actually be the only one.
I went away numerous times to Worlds and Europeans.
