Lee gets into the swing of things

ANDY LEE got his first flavour of the Olympic atmosphere yesterday. And he enjoyed the experience immensely.

The Limerick man had an early morning session at the Olympic Training Venue in Dekeleia, close to the Athletes' Village, followed by a visit in the afternoon to the magnificent Peristeri Olympic Boxing Hall.

"It was just to get him used to the place," coach Billy Walsh said. "It was a rehearsal, he had a visit to the changing room, the area where they put the gloves on and then an opportunity to get the smell of the ring.
