Last Cycling Tour Stage to Go Through Butte Montmartre in Paris
The final stage of this year's Tour de France will go up the Butte Montmartre, a year after the road race of the Paris Olympics went on the iconic hill, organizers said on Wednesday. "An exceptional route has been designed, inspired by the course of the road race at the 2024 Olympic Games, which drew over 500,000 spectators last August," Amaury Sport Organization said in a statement. "The riders will climb Montmartre hill and pass at the foot of the Sacre-Coeur before contesting a stage whose scenario could break with the traditions established over the past 50 years in the heart of the capital." The Tour has been finishing on the Champs Elysees every year since 1975, at the exception of 2024, when it ended up in Nice. The Champs Elysees stage is usually a procession to the avenue, where only the final sprint is contested, but this year's route is likely to break this scenario, Reuters reported. The Tour starts on July 5 in Lille and ends on July 27.

Sacre Coeur Boxing Club enjoying super year
Today at 09:30 2025 has been a tremendous year so far for Sacre Coeur Boxing Club, Enniscorthy. Leading the way was Oisín Goff, who won a fantastic fourth Irish title in succession, with his little sister, Caitlin, collecting her first in the National Boxing Stadium. The club is very proud of the duo and have no doubt they will go from strength to strength in their boxing careers. The club also has another new Irish champion in Nadia Mja, after an outstanding campaign, winning her County, Leinster and Irish championships. Sacre Coeur had three Irish champions this year, while also securing ten Leinster championships and a record-breaking 16 county championships. Chairman Frankie Kirwan says the club is moving in the right direction, with new coaches installed over the past few years, bringing a great energy to Sacre Coeur. The club is already full for the upcoming season in all age groups. This is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the coaches.
