An ancient tradition only practised in two locations in Cornwall. Hurling the Silver Ball forms an essential part of St Ives Feast, which takes place on the first Monday after February 3rd and celebrates the anniversary of the consecration of the parish church of St Eia, in 1434. Each year processions of musicians, townsfolk and schoolchildren make their way through the town's narrow, cobbled alleyways wearing pieces of ivy in remembrance of St Eia, the patron saint of St Ives, who is believed to have made her way across the sea from Ireland on a boat made of ivy. At half past ten the mayor makes her way to the steps of the church and 'throws up' the silver ball, which has been blessed in the holy well of St Eia in readiness for the annual hurling competition.
