Journal

Bataireacht is a term used to describe the various stickfighting "martial arts" of Ireland. "Bata" (or "bhata" depending upon context), is a general term which can mean any kind of stick. The actual bata or stick used for bataireacht is often referred to as a "Sail-Eille" or phonetically in English as "shillelagh". The word "cudgel" is also used in period texts. Traditionally, blackthorn, oak, ash and hazel were the most common types of woods used to make shillelagh fighting sticks. The Irish have used various sticks and cudgels as weapons of self-defense for centuries. Since ancient times, the arts of stick fighting had been handed down from fathers to sons or learned in traditional military fencing schools. By the 18th century bataireacht became increasingly associated with Irish gangs called "factions". Irish faction fights involved large groups of Irish men (and sometimes women) who would engage in melees at county fairs, weddings, funerals, or any other convenient gathering. Modern practice of Bataireacht has arisen among some practitioners from a desire to maintain or reinstate Irish family traditions, while for others a combination of historical and cultural interest has lead to their interest in bataireacht. In the United States, it has gained popularity as a form of self-defense, since a cane or walking stick can be carried easily in modern society. As is the case with most martial arts, multiple versions exist.
