The Marine Harvest Shinty / Hurling International series between Scotland and Ireland will be decided by an agreed scoring system.
The series is played over two tests and a win in either game constitutes two points for the victors whilst a draw is one point apiece and teams get no points for a defeat.
Also, if either team scores two or more goals during the game, they are awarded an additional point.
