Choosing the right hurley size is crucial for maximising performance on the hurling field. The right hurley not only enhances your control and striking power but also contributes to your overall agility and speed in the game. Over the years, the ideal hurley size has evolved, reflecting the changing dynamics and demands of hurling. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the process of selecting the perfect hurley size for today’s fast-paced game.

As hurling continues to grow in popularity, it’s important for young players to have the right tools to help them develop their skills. At Torpey, we’ve embraced innovation while staying true to our hurling roots by introducing the Torpey Bambú Hurley. Designed with kids in mind,  our Bambú hurleys offer a range of benefits that can help kids excel in hurling while enjoying the game to the fullest. Here’s why the Bambú hurley is the perfect choice for your young hurler.

The aim of the game is to hit the ball off the back wall until your opponent fails to return it, earning points each time you win a rally until you win the game.

In the heart of Ireland’s rich hurling tradition, the clash of the ash has echoed through the ages. However, a challenge looms over the traditional materials as the threat of Ash dieback disease poses a significant hurdle for ash hurley manufacturers. While the ash tree’s decline presents a formidable obstacle, it also opens doors to new possibilities for innovation in the game.

In the fast-paced and high-intensity world of hurling the importance of mindfulness cannot be overstated. During the challenges of Covid-19, we introduced the concept of “Hurling Mindfulness” as a beacon of self-care and resilience. Now, in 2024, we revisit the idea to emphasise its timeless relevance.
