Donegal's newest amateur boxing club, training fighters in the shadow of the Derryveagh Mountains — all ages, all levels, welcome.
Founded in 2023, Derryveagh Boxing Club is one of Donegal's newest amateur boxing clubs, based in Gortahork and serving boxers from Falcarragh, Gweedore and right across the Cloughaneely area.
Fully affiliated and insured with the IABA, the club was built by head coach David Tennyson, who returned to his home area to develop a club rooted in the local community — starting with introductory classes in Gweedore and Falcarragh before finding a home in Gortahork.
Whether you're a young boxer starting out or chasing an Ulster title, Derryveagh BC has a programme built for you.
Structured coaching for young boxers, building discipline, fitness and confidence in a safe, supportive environment.
From fitness boxing to technical pad work, our sessions are built for adults training at every level.
A clear pathway from novice to competitive amateur boxing, coached toward Ulster and national IABA competition.
Our name is an homage to the Derryveagh Mountains rising over the Cloughaneely area of west Donegal — home turf known for producing tough, dedicated athletes.
Message us on Facebook for training times and membership details — new boxers of all ages are always welcome.
