London Camanachd

London Camanachd London's shinty team. London Camanachd is the only shinty club in London and we train on Saturday afternoons at Acton Garden Village Association.

We play in matches in England, Scotland and in mainland Europe. Players of all abilities are welcome and we have opportunities for games and training at beginner and advanced levels. Send us a message if you would like to join us at a training session. Sticks and helmets can be provided. Shinty is a fast paced and exciting field sport played with a caman (stick) and a cork-based ball. It is simila

r to hurling and hockey and is played with 12 players on each team. Find out more about shinty here - http://www.shinty.com/shinty/playing-shinty/how-shinty-is-played/

Shinty has had a long history in London with records of matches being played from the 1800s onwards, with 8 team in pre-WW1 London including London Camanachd which continues to this day. Since then it has grown to welcome those who played at University or College in Scotland and those who tried shinty for the first time in London.
