A Chairde,
Please see below details for this Sunday's tournament.
Please note rules tournament format and game rules are online at https://www.hurlingdc.com/tournament
Please remember this tournament is a go games format. It is about making it fun and a positive experience for all the kids. Panel numbers and playing numbers are outlined in the link on the website.
Bringing additional players outside of the recommended is not an issue as long as you get them equal game time. Rolling subs work very well, if we can keep to the on court player number guidelines it makes for a much faster and more enjoyable format.
Checklist.
All Teams to arrive at least 15 minutes before games.
All teams ready to enter the playing areas 5 mins before the game starts.
Teams will be lined up with opposition. Please have your team ready to go before entering, starting positions. There is a one/two minute turnaround on games.
