BATTLE OF THE BADGES

Two firefighters.
Two countries.
One serious test.

🇮🇪 Paddy Clavin – Templemore’s own
🚒 Tipperary Fire & Rescue
18 years boxing experience
VS
🇺🇸 James Gennari – FDNY Bravest
🔥 Staten Island, New York
15 years boxing experience

This is what it’s all about.
A local man representing his town, stepping into the ring against one of New York’s Bravest. Both seasoned. Both battle-hardened. Both stepping in for something bigger than themselves.

No shortcuts. No easy rounds.
Just two firefighters going to war for a cause that matters.

💗 All in aid of Aoibheann's Pink Tie
Fighting for children and families battling cancer.

📍 Templemore
📅 May 3rd
🎟 Tickets €20

https://www.idonate.ie/fundraiser/paddyclavin1

Myself and one of the lads out getting the steps in today… full BA gear just to make it that bit tougher 💪

Our April walking challenge for Aoibheann’s Pink Tie is officially underway, and we want everyone involved.

👉 This isn’t about being perfect

👉 It’s not about hitting 10,000 every single day

If you can:

Do one walk ✔️

Do a few thousand steps ✔️

Get out when you can ✔️

It all counts. Every step helps.

📲 Just get out, get moving, take a photo or screenshot, post it up and share the donation link. That’s it.

🙏 A massive thank you to everyone supporting us so far:

Our sponsors

Everyone buying tickets

All the fighters putting in the work

The teams travelling over

And everyone sending in videos and sharing posts

The support has been unbelievable.
Let’s keep pushing now over the next few weeks and make this a huge success for Aoibheann’s Pink Tie ❤️

Every step, every share, every bit of support makes a difference.
