What are some games that come from hurling?

Answer 1

Camogie, which is the women's version of Hurling, is the main one. The rules are very similar. You have other unofficial games, like long puck competitions, to see who can hit the ball furthest, or over a set course with the fewest pucks. This is known as the Poc Fada, and there is an annual competition for it in August each year, in the Cooley mountains in Co. Louth. You have games where players try to hit the crossbar with the sliothar (name of the ball Hurling is played with).
