There is some lovely lighting in these shots and nice metering as well ... Not being interested in sports these are the aspects that stand out for me. I can also appreciate the skill in focusing with that lens, so good job there!
I particularly like how the subjects stand out with the sunshine against the darker backgrounds.

Thanks guys. Like I said it was first time trying it. It's a very fast game so I enjoyed trying to keep up with the pace of it.

For a first attempt, you've done really well to capture these. As you say hurling is a very fast game (considered the fastest ball game in the world by some) and the ball is very small!
