Donnie MacNiven from Glasgow was given a Special Services Award at the Marine Harvest Awards ceremony at An Aird on Saturday 20 June 2009.
MacNiven has been involved in many shinty roles in Glasgow since the 1950s and he is one of the main reasons why senior shinty at Glasgow Mid Argyll has prospered.
MacNiven was unable to attend the ceremony and so his Award was received by his friend and Camanachd Association Director without portfolio Archie Robertson in his absence.
