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.
