Hurling
The game of hurling is more than just a game — it is Ireland's national passion. But to appreciate hurling, one must look beyond the mere fact that it is a sport, because it is much more. Countering the trend towards big-money professional athletics, hurling has remained strictly amateur. It is a game played purely for the fun and history of it. It is a game woven deeply into the social fabric of the Irish people.
Gaelic Football
Great games are about an exhibition of skills, of physical and moral bravery and great individual ability. Gaelic Football has all these attributes and more. It is a unique game in the realm of sport. This is due to the high speed, high skill level and the thrill and passion shown by each and every player.
