  1. Football and Hurling

    Share Share Post
    People used to play football with about twenty people in the team and the players used to tear the clothes off each others when playing. The goals were marked by two players coats. When a player goes to get the ball another can hit or kick him. The hurley are the same as camogie or hockey sticks.
