What are the rules in GAA Hurling and how does the scoring work?
GAA Hurling is a fast-paced Irish sport where two teams of 15 players compete to score by hitting a sliotar (ball) with a hurley (stick) into the goal.
Goals are worth three points, and points are awarded for sending the sliotar over the crossbar.
Matches are played over 70 minutes, divided into two 35-minute halves.
Players can carry the ball for four steps, bounce it, or solo it (kick it back into their hand), and can also hand-pass or kick the ball. Fouls include striking, tripping, or holding an opponent.
Fouls:
Players can be tackled, but not struck by a one-handed slash of the stick. Jersey-pulling, wrestling, pushing, and tripping are not allowed.
Tackling:
Players can be tackled, but not struck by a one-handed slash of the stick.
Helmet Removal:
A player who removes their helmet must leave the field and can only return at a break in play, with the referee's permission, at the halfway line.
What are the rules for the GAA All-Ireland Hurling final?
The GAA Hurling final follows standard hurling rules, with a few specific rules for the final match.
If the game ends in a draw after 70 minutes, extra time is played, and if still tied, a replay will be held, with no extra time in the replay according to GAA official rules.
If the replay is also a draw, then extra time will be played, followed by a penalty shootout if necessary.

Celtic star Yang to seal EFL Championship move as Hoops clear decks by letting THIRD winger leave with Jota injured
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) CELTIC continue to make room for squad improvements this summer with Yang the latest fringe man poised to leave the club. The South Korean winger has been pictured wearing a Norwich City strip this evening and SunSport understands that an initial loan deal to the East Anglia side is set to go through imminently. Sign up for the Celtic newsletter Sign up 3 Yang celebrates his goal against Newcastle Credit: Kenny Ramsay 3 Yang has been spotted in the colours of Norwich City We told you last week how Norwich were a likely destination for the player. He'll follow Nicolas Kuhn, who joined Como on a permanent deal this summer, and Luis Palma, who's on the move to Lech Poznan on loan, on the way out of Parkhead this summer. He'll also likely be joined going out the exit door by another winger in the form of Aussie star Marco Tilio, who has been strongly linked with a move to Rapid Vienna - while big money recruit Jota is out injured for several months. Yang, 23, moved to Celtic two years ago in a £2million deal from Gangwon in his homeland. He appeared 34 times across all competitions last season, just nine of those were league starts. In total, Yang has featured 65 times for the Hoops and scored seven goals. Brendan Rodgers has added Benjamin Nygren but is still hoping to add to his wide options this transfer window. Antwerp's Michel-Ange Balikwisha has been a long term target and the departure of Yang could pave the way for his arrival. The Canaries are in the market for a new winger after losing star man Borja Sainz in a mega money deal. Norwich have made an incredible profit on Spanish winger Sainz who they signed on a free transfer from Turkish side Giresunspor in 2023. Former Celtic star Greg Taylor stuns PAOK team-mates as he belts out Abba tune for his initiation song And SunSport understands that Yang is the man they think can fill that void. 3 Keep up to date with ALL the latest news and transfers at the Scottish Sun football page
