Rules
- - Only players & mentors should be allowed access to the pitches. All parents to remain outside the 'wire'
- - Teams to be ideally 10 a-side but if teams can only get 7 or 8 or 9 then they will be matched accordingly
- If a team cannot get enough players to play 7 a-side then they should still travel to the venue where they will be incorporated into other teams. It is all about young hurlers getting game time
- As per last year – players are not allowed to question referees decisions or call for fouls – it they do they are to be substituted
- Managers should not question the referees decisions or call for fouls – if this happens continually then the team will not be allowed to participate in the following Blitz at that age group
- - Matches will be 10mins played straight through
- Usual hurling rules but an accidental 65 will result in a puc-out. A deliberate 65 will result in a 20m free
- - Teams should not have any more than 3 subs. If they have more than 3 subs these lads should be incorporated into other teams
