FOREWORD TEXT

B.A.B.A

 

On behalf of the above Club it gives me great pleasure to welcome you to yet another Tournament.

Our achievements in the International Fields are now well-known, and thanks go out to both these boys (J. Cassidy and L. McAteer) who have brought credit and honour to the Club and to themselves.

In the Junior ranks success has also been achieved by three of our boys: namely, K. Garner who won the Welsh Junior Championship and two Finalists J. Lavery and E. Williams.

Our trainer Mr. J. Mullen and Hon. Secretary and Second Mr. L. Towell, never sparing themselves in the untiring efforts to see these boys reach their goal, share in this honour.

Needless to say I am sure you will give them this evening, the vocal support that they deserve.

Having dealt with the activities of the Club, I would now like to thank Mr. Keeley for his generosity in providing us with this Hall, our President Mr. Wilf Shone for his sterling support at all times.

We, the Committee, feel honoured also the thank the Northern Division of the Welsh A.B.A. and our Hon Medical Officers Dr. McKeogh and Dr. Fraser for their unfailing services and assistance.

May we finally thank the Boxers, Officials, the unseen workers and most important of all, you the sporting public for your support.

E.WILLIAMS, Chairman.

The Compliments of the season to you all.
