EXCHANGE RATE Weather in Aviemore click for details Winners Business Section Commended Commended - Web Site Newtonmore Camanachd Club A brief introduction to the sport of Shinty. Shinty - or Camanachd as it is known in Gaelic-speaking areas, is an ancient game, introduced along with Christianity and the Gaelic language over two thousand years ago by Irish missionaries. The game can undoubtedly lay claim to being Scotland's true national sport - it is even claimed, with some justification, that golf was born out of players practising the art of driving the ball with the caman - the curved stick used by shinty players. In the latter part of the nineteenth century, efforts were made to bring together shinty teams from around Scotland, many playing different rules, or variations of the sport under a common set of rules. This led to a meeting from which the current Camanachd Association was formed, on Tuesday 10th October 1893. The game is started when two opposing players cross camans above their heads and the referee throws the ball into the air above their camans. When the ball goes out of play at the sidelines, it is hit back into play by a player throwing the ball in the air above his head and striking it with the back of his caman - above his head - with both feet on the ground and parallel to the sideline. Only the goalkeeper is allowed to handle the ball - and even he may only slap the ball with the flat of his hand - he may not catch or grasp it in any way. The other principal difference between shinty and many other ball sports is in its off-side rule. In shinty, a player is off-side if he enters the ten-yard area around the goal (marked on the pitch) before the ball enters the area - either on the ground or in the air - it is irrelevant how many defending players may be in the vicinity, or goal side of the ball.

Shinty , officially known as camanachd , is a team sport played with sticks and a ball. Played almost exclusively in the Scottish Highlands , the sport was derived from the game of hurling and is similar to bandy Game The objective of the game is to play a small ball in a goal, or hail , erected at the ends of a 160-yard-long pitch. The ball is played using the caman , a stick of about 3 1/2 ft in length. Unlike the hurling caman, it has no blade. A team consists of 12 players, with one goalkeeper. A match is played over two halves of 45 minutes. With the exception of the keeper, no player is allowed to play the ball with his hands. History Gaelic invaders from Ireland brought the sport of hurling to Scotland, where the game was played as such until the 14th century , be it with a different caman as the Irish. The modern sport is governed by the Camanachd Association (Comunn na Camanachd).

SHINTY IN SCOTLAND It is recognised that Scotland is one of the world warrior nations. Although renowned as one of the friendliest and welcoming of countries, the Scots love nothing more than watching, or taking part in, a good going "stramash" (fight). If there was ever a game that helped local clansman develop their levels of courage, speed, stamina and weapon handling skills, it is the game of shinty. The mental and physical strength required to play shinty has stood the Highlander in good stead in battle. In saying this however, it is important to recognise that, although opposing players may appear to be knocking lumps out of one another during the game, off the field some of the strongest friendships in sport have been developed. It was not until the last quarter of the eighteen hundreds that shinty really began to get itself organised with the many local interpretations of the rules of play being formalised. The earliest documented rules of play were recorded by the Aberdeen University Shinty Club who in 1861 became the first constituted shinty club in Scotland. The Camanachd Association was formally instituted in 1893 with the first final for a national trophy - the Camanachd Cup - taking place in 1896. Shinty in Scotland is divided into two areas, the North and the South. Nineteen clubs are established in each of these areas. The league system has a Premier Division of eight teams. There are three other divisions ion the North and two in the South. Division two in the South is divided into West and East sections.

Shinty Camanachd, also known as Shinty, has been played in the Highlands of Scotland for over 2000 years. It's a game of the stick and ball variety, similar to Field Hockey and Irish Hurling. There is also a similarity to Golf, in fact Golf is believed to have evolved from Shinty. Shinty played properly is more aerial than Field Hockey due to the wedge-shaped head of the Shinty Stick (called Caman in Scots Gaelic). The grounds at Dunsmuir are too small for a real tournament, however we will be playing a demonstration match of this ancient Scottish field sport on the athletic field at noon. Be sure to visit our tent along the road in the athletic area for more information and to sign up for our newsletter. Northern California Camanachd Club consists of mostly beginning level players of various ages, however we also have an experienced player from Scotland among our members.

Shinty or C amanachd For the first time this year the Monterey Games will provide an area for the demonstration of a sport that is reputedly "older than kilts." There will be demo games and a spot for you come out to the pitch to try swinging the caman at the leather-bound ball... Please check your program for the location of the Shinty pitch. The description below was furnished by the Northern California Camanachd Club (NCCC). What it's about: Shinty is arguably the oldest of Scottish sports, having been played in some form or other for about 2,000 years. It is a stick and ball game, a cousin of Field Hockey and Hurling, and an ancestor of Golf. Furthermore, some believe that Ice Hockey developed from Scots immigrants playing Shinty (or shinny as it came to be known in the New World) on the Canadian ice. Shinty (also called camanachd or iomain in Scots Gaelic) remains a part of Highland folk tradition and has also become a modern sport, its rules being codified in the late 19th century (about the same time that baseball's rules were set down). In fact shinty continues to be played by many in Scotland with the Camanachd Association (founded in 1893) overseeing men's and women's leagues for different age groups and skill levels. This most Scottish of sports has even touched current popular culture, serving as one of J. K. Rowling's inspirations for creating Quidditch, Harry Potter's favourite athletic pursuit. The game of Shinty is played by two teams (usually 6 or 12 players a side) on a field of similar proportions (though generally larger) to a soccer pitch. The players use camans (hooked/curved sticks with a triangular cross section) to strike the shinty ball, either in the air or on the ground, with the intention of scoring a goal. The goalkeeper (traditionally called the hail keeper) guards the goal nets (12 feet wide by 10 feet tall) and is the only player allowed to use his hands to stop the ball. A shinty match can vary in length, ranging from 30 minutes for 6-a-side to 90 minutes for 12-a-side, the total time divided into two equal halves. A referee regulates play and enforces rules with the aid of side and goal judges.
