    this game but others had not. They used to play hurley also at that time. They had hurleys of every size, but of the same material as now. They used a ball made of leather also for this game. At that time the people had no rubber. The hurling games were nearby the same as the football matches. These were the best enjoyed games of the local people at that time.
