Billy Walsh: Minor Days, Team USA & GAA Pride

Our guest for Season 3 Episode 4 of the GAA Minor Moments podcast with Electric Ireland is Wexford’s Billy Walsh – current Head Coach of Team USA Boxing.  Billy talks about his GAA-centric upbringing laying the foundations for his very successful career in boxing, both as an Olympian and Olympic Head Coach. Billy, who was headhunted by Team USA following his success with the Irish Olympic boxing team, speaks very honestly how his time playing minor football and hurling for Wexford formed lifelong friendships and taught lifelong lessons.  Every Tuesday well known Irish stars will share memories from their early sporting careers and reflect on the defining moments from playing Minor and how that shaped them both on and off the pitch.  For more information on the Electric Ireland Camogie Minor Championships got to https://www.electricireland.ie/camogie-minor-championships.  For more information on the Electric Ireland GAA Minor Championships go to https://www.electricireland.ie/gaa-minor-championships.  Produced and hosted by Fergal O’Keeffe at https://lume.ie  #ThisIsMajor  Hosted on Acast.
