Reuben Stevenson of St Paul’s ABC lifted the Irish U15 Title (37kg) at the National Stadium in Dublin on Friday evening. The U15 competition began on 8th August with a total of 162 athletes competing to clinch one of 34 weight category national titles that were up for grabs.<\/p>\n

Impressively this was Reuben\u2019s debut in the cadet championships and was stepping up an age group to face a strong opponent in North Down\u2019s Yousef Aldhifan.<\/p>\n

In a battle of two southpaws, the difference was Reuben\u2019s ability to step inside the danger zone, use his lead-back hand effectively, and control the mid-range exchanges. He showed outstanding form throughout and executed the game plan to perfection. A brilliant bout and deservedly he took the decision 3-2.<\/p>\n

Huge congratulations to Reuben, the team of coaches at St Pauls, and all the supporters who travelled down to make it a memorable night for the club.<\/p>\n
