In 2007, the GAA announced that a hurling team from Fingal (north county Dublin) would compete in parallel to the main Dublin team,[1] to encourage hurling in an area of growing population where the game has not been strong.[2] While players from Fingal are eligible for the main Dublin team, non-Fingal players cannot play for Fingal.[2] The new team competed in the Nicky Rackard Cup in 2008 and 2009,[2] the Kehoe Cup in 2009[3] and in Division 3B of the 2009 National hurling league.[4]
