Yellow footballs are often used for National League games played under lights and definitely helps visibility. Moyle (Tipperary) - Posts: 86 - 21/11/2017 00:11:47 2063144 Link 0 |
I'm all for it.Much easier to follow the yellow ball. Condorman (Dublin) - Posts: 983 - 21/11/2017 11:46:28 2063163 Link 0 |
Awful easy to lose a white sliothar behind the goals or even leave behind on the pitch after training. This could be a good move. keeper7 (Longford) - Posts: 4088 - 21/11/2017 16:18:59 2063187 Link 0 |
I was wondering why and when tennis changed from a white to a yellow ball. It's similar to hurling in that it has a fast moving small ball. This is what I found after searching on the net: Cockney_Cat (UK) - Posts: 2420 - 21/11/2017 18:32:07 2063207 Link 0 |
Possibly because hurling is played on a field and not in a sitting room through a screen! Seriously though....I'd be old fashioned in the sense I don't like too many drastic changes but I think this would definitely be worth a try. Personally as someone who doesn't have brilliant vision I find it difficult at times especially on clear days. Worth a try using a phased approach to be fair on the sliothar manufacturers too tiobraid (Tipperary) - Posts: 4119 - 22/11/2017 13:43:23 2063269 Link 0 |

Or a round neon light, that would be cool, some space age looking helmets and silver hurls, be like tron :D realdub (Dublin) - Posts: 8571 - 09/12/2017 01:11:37 2064722 Link 1 |
And flashing LED lights in the sliotar. It'd be cool of they could have it explode randomly during the game too. Add a bit of unpredictability. TJ Reid bearing down on goal, throws it up to strike and boom it's blows up, making smithereens of his hurl.
