Here's an interesting presentation on hurling in the Glens.

Fair play to whoever did that a lot of work went in. At first I thought it had all come out of a very good book about the Feis that exists but there was much more to it than that. Well done to Mr McCarry

Fantastic. Great to see all the old Hurling pictures I love looking at them. Might en be a bad idea to give some of those old pictures to the GAA museum.

On a side note my Uncle was in Bushmills a couple of years back and was presented with some old camans that were found at the Mc Naughton estate. One of the locals recognised him as a Hurling man and gave them to him. Hard to believe at one time Caman was popular in the area. In fairness the Bushmills lads wouldn't have a lot of catching up to do to be at our level if they ever decide to wield the Caman again ;)
