The two sports stem from the same origin but have very different traditions and rules

COMPROMISE rules return but this time in Ennis, Co. Clare, as Ireland hopes to retain the series title they already hold.

Last time out, Ireland ran out 0-22 to 2-8 winners at Pairc Esler in Newry, Co Down, with former Antrim hurler Neil McManus lifting the Mowi Quaich trophy on behalf of the Irish selection.

This time, the one-off exhibition of the two codes will take place in the home of the All-Ireland hurling champions Clare.

Historically, both nations have experienced a period of dominance in the series and Scotland had won the last five series before last year.

The last two-match series to take place was in 2015, when Scotland beat their Irish rivals over two legs in Bught Park, in Inverness and Croke Park in Dublin.
