Is it like the International Rules (IR) between Australia and Ireland?
Gaelic Football is very similar to the International Rules. It is a quick game using a round ball. The main differences include: • There is no tackling in Gaelic football. Shoulder bumps are allowed • There are no marks. Once you have the ball, it is ‘play on’. • There is no limit on consecutive handballs • You must bounce or solo after 4 steps or 4 seconds. Not the six as in IR. • You can not bounce the ball twice in a row without performing a solo/toe tap • There are no point posts. Only ‘overs’ and goals.
