Format

Matches are played in the Super 11’s format, which only permits goals to be scored, not points. Goals scored inside the 20 yards (18 m) exclusion zone are worth three points, else five points from outside. The 2015 event was a single match, divided into four 15-minute quarters with unlimited substitutions. Later events have had two semi-final matches then a final match, all held on the same day, with matches divided into two 20-minutes halves. Yellow cards result in a two-minute spell in the sin bin and frees are taken on a tap-and-go basis. A team has 30 seconds after gaining possession to attempt a shot at goal. This is reduced to 20 seconds in the final two minutes of each period. The dimensions of the pitch are 100 yards (91 m) x 53 yards (48 m)—the size of a gridiron football pitch, without the end zones—which is laid into halves, with a defensive zone marked by a line drawn 20 yards (18 m) from each goal line.[5][6][7]

Results

2015

This was the first time that hurling was played at Fenway Park since November 1954, when Cork defeated an American team.[1][8] With Galway facing Dublin in the event's only match, the contest was marred by a brawl in the second quarter in front of the Dublin goal.[9][10] A bout of pushing and shoving quickly started with players throwing punches, wrestling on the ground. Galway's Iarla Tannian and Andy Smith along with Dublin's Conor Dooley were all yellow-carded.[11][12] Each side was later fined €5,000 by the Central Competitions Control Committee of the GAA.[13]
