Looks like a blast - but "played for at least 3,000 years" - that's a long game unless they take long beer breaks,petereoin wrote:

Hi Screamin Scott, here is a little bit about the game.
Hurling (Irish: Iománaíocht/Iomáint) is an outdoor team game of ancient Gaelic origin, administered by the Gaelic Athletic Association, and played with sticks called hurleys and a ball called a sliotar. Hurling is the national sport of Ireland. The game has prehistoric origins, has been played for at least 3,000 years,and is thought to be the world's fastest field team game in terms of game play.
Kidding. 
Shoot, learn and share. It will make you a better photographer.
