Troubleshooting

  • Reliable performance in both dry and rainy conditions

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Murphys Hurling Match Sliotar Ball, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when not in use, as this can degrade the outer material. After playing in wet conditions, wipe the ball down with a dry, clean cloth to remove mud or debris before storing it in a cool, ventilated area. Avoid leaving the ball in a damp gear bag for extended periods, as this can lead to premature wear of the stitching. This ball is compatible with standard hurling sticks (hurleys) and is optimized for use on natural grass or artificial hurling pitches.
