Welcome to the Shillelagh University site, my attempt to set the record straight on the sometimes confusing world of Irish stick-fighting. Irish stick-fighting is definitely for real, but some of the people who claim to be teaching aren’t. I’m glad you’re interested in real Irish culture instead of the Plastic Paddy stuff, and I hope this site, and all my research, will help you find whatever you’re looking for.
take care,
John
