Kilnamanagh Kickboxers World Championship's 2023

LJay's Elite Martial Arts (D24) athletes have qualified to represent Ireland at the upcoming WAKO World & European Championships later this year. Although Kickboxing has received Olympic recognition, it still remains a non-funded sport in Ireland, meaning that this trip is completely self-funded by our athletes.

Our athletes are members of LJay's Elite Martial Arts which is a small family-run kickboxing club in Kilnamanagh. Here, our athletes put in countless hours of training each week in preparation as well as supporting our up-and-coming members. Our team have worked very hard to get to where they are today and all support is greatly appreciated.

Also, any companies or businesses willing to sponsor our team travelling, please get in touch, your brand will receive publicity through branded gear and social media links.
