      The Highland Game of Shinty is an exciting spectacle not to be missed if you have the chance. A game deeply rooted in history, it is still a thriving sport today with some 35 teams affiliated to the Shinty Association and competing regularly. However, it is the 2 villages of Newtonmore Newtonmore hold the record of winning the Camanachd Cup (The Scottish Cup) 28 times since their foundation in 1890. Until the 1980's, Newtonmore were, without doubt, the most successful team in shinty. Over the last 25 years, though, Kingussie have been the more successful of the two teams. However, Newtonmore are now the reigning Champions, having won the Scottish Hydro Premier Division Title in 2010 and are now looking forward to a new era of success. As you can imagine, the rivalry between the two villages is intense. If you’re lucky enough to be able to see the local derby being played, you’ll sense that for yourself. www.shinty.com

Shinty team sport played with sticks and a ball. Shinty is now played mainly in the Scottish Highlands , and amongst Highland migrants to the big cities of Scotland, but it was formerly more widespread, being once competitively played on a widespread basis in England and other areas in the world where Scottish Highlanders migrated.
Whilst comparisons are often made with field hockey , the two sports have several important differences. In shinty, a player is allowed to play the ball in the air and is allowed to use both sides of the stick. The stick may also be used to block and to tackle, although a player may not come down on an opponent's stick, a practice called hacking. A player may tackle using the body as long as this is shoulder-to-shoulder as in association football
The sport was derived from the same root as the Irish game of hurling but has developed different rules and features. These rules are governed by the

Shinty
Camanachd Cup
Shinty, or camanachd, as it is traditionally known in the Gaelic-speaking West Highlands, is an ancient game. Introduced to North-West Scotland along with Christianity and the Gaelic language nearly two thousand years ago by Irish missionaries, the game can legitimately lay claim to being Scotland's national sport. There is no doubt that the game was popular at various stages virtually nation-wide, from the wind-swept rocks of St Kilda to the more hospitable and gentler plains of the Borders; from Wimbledon Common to Manchester, in a fantasy world of Celtic twilight. Indeed, it is claimed that golf was perhaps born out of shinty players practicing, alone or in pairs, the art of driving the ball with the caman, or stick. The game is also to be found on the worldwide stage with exiles taking the game to the furthest flung corners of the globe. That shinty has survived the combined assaults of Royal edicts against popular and `uncontrollable' games, as well as the Sabbatarianism following the Reformation and the outlawing of sports on the day of rest is a tribute to the people involved in the setting up of the organisation which drew this intriguing web of wayward strands together in the 1890s - the Camanachd Association, shinty's ruling body.
