sport news Boxer Harry Garside could be banned from Olympics after allegedly assaulting ... trends now
Boxer and reality TV star Harry Garside could be barred from joining Australia's team for next year's Paris Olympics after allegedly assaulting his ex-girlfriend Ash Ruscoe.
Garside, 25, was arrested at Sydney International Airport on Tuesday as he returned to Australia from filming the reality TV series I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here.
The Olympic bronze medallist is accused of committing domestic assault against his ex-girlfriend, Ash Ruscoe, at a property in Bondi on March 1.
Garside won the bronze medal for Australia at the Toyko 2020 Olympics and intends to compete at the Paris 2024 Olympics - which could leave the AOC with a very difficult decision.
A squad has not been yet named for the 2024 Games in Paris, but Garside - who was the first Aussie to win an Olympic boxing medal in 33 years - would appear to be a shoo-in for selection.
Garside would be a shoo-in to make the Australian boxing team for the Paris Games if it weren't for his assault charge
