HURLING
| Description | Hurling is an unusual Cornish game with a silver ball played in the Streets of the old market town of St. Columb Major on Shrove Tuesday and again on the following Saturday week in each year. Hurling is one of the oldest forms of a ball game and is played at a very fast pace. The goals are two miles apart and one goal concludes the game. If goaling the ball is not possible, another way of winning is for the silver ball to be carried out of the Parish, which can involve a long and arduous cross country run. |
