Hurling Rules
Hurling pre-dates recorded history. There is archeological evidence of the game being played in ancient Ireland 2000 years ago. The sport was formalised when the rules of the modern game were drawn up in 1884 with the foundation of the GAA. The greatest and most prestigious prize in Hurling is the inter-county All-Ireland Championship.
Chip Lift, used when aiming to take the ball into your hands without breaking stride. The ball cannot be lifted ''off the deck'' at all - aka picked up.
