41/52 Hurling

            The real sport of warriors

The fastest field game in the world  and one of the toughest. 

The game is a 15 a side game with a great history. Versions of hurling can be traced back to 1600s and has evolved into a terrific sport. It is widely played in Ireland and over the last 30 - 40 years has grown and spread to all corners of the world and is played in Australia Asia, U,S,A and has clubs all over Europe. 
Most towns and villages have a GAA or Gaelic Athletic Association club. The GAA also runs Gaelic football Camogie Rounders, Handball and ladies football. 
From club level players can get selected to play for their county. If lucky enough you can get to play in Liam McCarthy cup the top hurling tournament with the final played before 84,000 spectators. The skill of the players is amazing to see. Their control of the ball and striking of the ball takes many years practice and coaching. 

If you get the chance go and see a game in Croke park, our national stadium and one of the finest sports venues in the world.
