Do you know how to get a schedule for Hurling games in the southern part of Ireland for the month of July? I want to take the kids to a big stadium event. Thanks.

This is a good place to start. Hurling is an addicting game to watch. We became fans after watching the all Ireland championships. We've got shirts, etc.
Go Kilkenny Cats!!!!

Check out www.gaa.ie. This is the website for the GAA, the Gaelic Athletic Assn. There is a link for hurling there. Elsewhere on the site it says that tickets for most matches are available on Ticketmaster.

We will be vacationing in Clare, Cork and Kerry counties. I can't find a schedule on the www.independent.ie/sports/hurling site. And I have no idea which towns have teams, do you know how I can find towns with teams or schedules? THanks.

This link will give you some interesting information. It seems that most towns have a team, but the county leagues only play a 10-game season.
You can find a schedule on the GAA website, but it doesn't say where the games are to be played (they say "venue to be chosen"). These are for various levels of championship play, though. You might try contacting the Irish Tourist Board to see if they have a list.
