Jest The N.S.W Hurling League Lid, is a company that is established to conduct hurling competitions in Sydney between district hurling clubs. There are currently eleven clubs in the competition, and each club has nominated two representatives to be members of the league. Involvement in the Sydney competition brings in much of the clubs' revenue. After the 1998 season, the directors of the league were concerned that the high number of clubs in the competition had had unsatisfactory consequences, for example, that the season had been too long, and that the players had become exhausted from having to play so many games. Prior to the commencement of the 1999 season, the League's Board of Directors resolved that the competition be reduced from eleven to ten clubs, and that the application of the Lindfield Hurling Club (the Lindfield Mashers) for entry into the 1999 competition be refused.
