File:Doyle Shillelagh - Irish Stick Fighting (Various) Bataireacht-2

Glen Doyle and friends as he teaches some traditional family Irish stick fighting techniques taught to him by his father, the late Greg Doyle.

Doyle Bataireacht or simply Doyle Clan Irish Stick Fighting is a devastatingly effective two-handed combative system developed well over 300 years ago by a Doyle family in Ireland. This system was brought to Canada in the early 1800s via a Doyle who settled in the rough and tumble landscape of the Atlantic's Newfoundland coast.

As most of the stick fighting styles eventually became extinct in Ireland (due to socio-political changes, and access to other forms of modern weapons etc), The Doyle Clan 'Rince an Bhata Uisce Beatha' was practiced, guarded, nurtured, further evolved, and passed on through the Doyle family residing in Newfoundland's Avalon Peninsula.
