Everyone at Skye Camanachd would like to pass on their warmest congratulations to Jimmy Devlin who celebrates his 80^th birthday on Thursday 12 March 2009.

Jimmy is a Skye Camanachd Vice President and he completed his 3 year tenure as Club Chieftain at the recent Annual General Meeting.

He is a regular attended at Skye Camanachd games and a loyal supporter of the club. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, Jimmy provided after match meals for visiting teams at his premises in Bayfield. These were hard times financially for Skye Camanachd and Jimmy regularly went long periods without payment and provided many a meal free of charge.

Jimmy also has an affection for Lovat shinty club although we are sure that he cheers on Skye Camanachd when the two sides meet!

His son John (Charlie) is a former Skye Camanachd player and who also served a period as second team manager.
