"Sliothar Hitters is a fantastic new development in hurling. It can be used for coaching or at home in your own garden. From a coaching point of view Sliothar Hitters bring variety and entertainment to our training while at the same time improving all the essential skills of our game. With Sliothar Hitters a player can hit a hundred balls in training and the beauty is that the ball is still in place for the next player ". "I'm very impressed with Sliothar Hitters. I think you will be too." |

"As a hurling coach, I have used Sliothar Hitter equipment as part of my training programmes for schools and summer camps. It is evident that the kids not only enjoy using the equipment but are working on the basic skills of hurling at the same time. The new range of Sliothar Hitter equipment that can also be used indoors provides even greater versatility and will no doubt make coaching easier ". |
