 - 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 referee's decisions or call for fouls - if they do they are to be substituted

 - Managers should not question the referee's 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

 - All clubs are to email declan.heggarty@btinternet.com  each week on the Tuesday prior to each blitz.  They need to let him know if they are or are not attending. If attending - how many teams will you be bringing?

 - There is a lot of interest in our blitzes from outside North Antrim.  If clubs are not attending some weeks we can allocate the space to a visiting club for that week

Note:  Clubs are NOT required to attend these blitzes every week.
