Lochcarron Camanachd's shinty team for under 12 year olds Shinty is Scotland's oldest indigenous team sport with origins way back in the Celtic Heroic Age - 2000 years ago. It is played mainly in the Highlands and among emigrant Scots in other countries. It is closely related to an Irish game called Hurling. The game is played between teams of twelve players with a bent stick or caman in Gaelic and has a passing resemblance to ice hockey and golf both of which may owe their origins to shinty. It is a fast game requiring great skill and stamina. Most players come from shinty-playing families with the skills passed down through the generations. |
