This was a variation of hurling played on the road, a strand or in a field.
A hurley, hurling-ball & small flat stick about the size of a foot-rule but thicker & stronger. A hole about 3" diam. was made in the road & one end of the stick, which was called a "naisiún" was put into the hole. On this end the ball was placed.
