Hurling is a team sport rooted in ancient Gaelic and Irish culture. Some historians and archaeologists believe the sport may be thousands of years old. The fast-paced, ball-and-stick game is similar to field hockey and lacrosse. The Gaelic Athletic Association, founded in 1884, helped popularize the sport in the modern day. It remains the national sport of Ireland, and there are hurling clubs throughout the world | Source: Getty ImagesDownload Original File
