A camogie player can hand pass a point over the bar from play (hand passing a goal is forbidden in Camogie since 2021 and forbidden in hurling since 1980). In Gaelic handball, points are scored by the person who serves the ball when the opponent is unable to return the opponent’s shot before it hits the ground twice. When the serving side loses a rally (or two consecutive rallies in doubles), it loses the serve. Matches are played as the best of three sets, with adults playing two sets to 21 points and a final tiebreaker set if needed in Irish championships (U15 play sets to 15 points). What is Rounders?

Rounders is a baseball-style game played with bases, a bat and a small ball on a field, with two teams alternating between batting and fielding.
