Hurling is an Irish outdoor team sport which makes up one of Ireland’s native Gaelic Games. It is one of the oldest and fastest field sports in the world, and like other Gaelic games is entirely amateur in its coordination. Hurling has had a long, traditional and historical relationship with Canada, with some sources showing that games of hurling were played in St John’s, Newfoundland as far back as the 1700’s.

A list of some of the basic rules of this historic game can be found further down this guide, and the best hurling betting odds, here at Betiton – the best online sports betting site in Canada.
