Report
Skye, from the Island off the West Coast of Scotland, won the Women’s Camanachd Association National Division 1 three years running from 2016 to 2018, improving as they went along. Fiona Cruikshank became the Club’s first female Chair that year, creating another piece of history along with the National Championship.
About Scottish Shinty
Shinty (also known as Camanachd) is the Scottish version of Hurling and Camogie, played mostly in the Gaelic-speaking Scottish Highlands. It has both Men’s and Women’s Leagues and Cups, and also University and Underage Competitions. It is 12-a-side, played with a stick and ball like in Hurling, but with no point-over-the-bar, just goals.
