IT’S all systems go for the Holy Trinity 50th anniversary gala event, set for Saturday October 22 at Belfast’s Balmoral Hotel.

Following on from a cracking club international clash against a strong Liverpool, Merseyside and Cheshire side last week, Trinity officials are now focused on putting the finishing touches to the Balmoral gala - the main event of their anniversary year.

“The Liverpool show at the Falls Bowling Club was an absolutely brilliant night of boxing,” said Holy Trinity coach and club social media editor, Michael Hawkins jr.

“The final score was tight, 6-4 to us, and the support was unreal - a massive thanks to everyone involved. Now we move on to our main event, the 50th anniversary dinner evening at the Balmoral.

“We’re really looking forward to reliving great memories with lots of our former boxers across all our levels of competition.

“We recently profiled our Ulster senior/elite champions at ‘Big Picture Show’ events in the clubrooms (72 titles between them) and now we highlight all those who won Irish senior/elite titles.

“We’ll announce the full list at the Balmoral, with a souvenir booklet highlighting their paths to the Irish finals and including ‘Punchlines’ on how all the other Ulster boxers fared on those fantastic nights.”

Tickets for the drinks reception, dinner and entertainment gala evening went on sale last week, price £45, and can be booked by contacting 07548 764777.
