A hurley that is too long puts a player at a disadvantage, especially for the younger players who do not yet have strength in their arms. The extra length means extra weight and this slows up the swing and general reaction, it can also lead to the incorrect grip.<\/p>\n<p>Years ago the hurley length was deemed to be when the hurley reached the top of the hip bone when put standing up beside the player&#8217;s leg. Nowadays a hurley of this length will hinder young players from developing their skills and their speed.<\/p>\n<p>The new thinking is that with the hurley held firmly\u00a0 at the top of the handle in the dominant hand and arm and hurley are allowed to hang down in a relaxed position at the side of the body, the heel\/toe of the hurley should be brushing the grass beside the dominant foot.<\/p>\n<p>In fact one should be able to freely swing the relaxed dominant arm and hurley, forward and backward, in a pendulum motion without the hurley hitting the ground. In other words the hurley is an extension of the dominant arm to the foot on the dominant side of the body.<\/p>\n<p>Also a player should be easily able to manipulate and swing the hurley with the dominant arm only. This point is especially important for young players,<strong> if the player cannot manipulate the hurley like a sword in the dominant arm only, then the hurley is too long\/heavy for them.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For safety all players must wear the following gear when training or playing matches: Hurling: boots, helmet with face guard, shin guards are a good idea for the younger players &hellip;
