2017 Aberdein Considine Sutherland Cup Draw | |
23 January 2017 The draw for the Aberdein Considine Sutherland Cup took place at Highland Print Studio, Inverness, on Monday 23 January 2017. The draw was made by Alison McMenemy from the Highland Print Studio and Glenurquhart keeper Stuart MacKintosh, who is the Player Representative to the Camanachd Association. The venue was selected as Highland Print Studio is about to embark on an exciting venture with the Camanachd Association which will see artists working with shinty clubs to create a series of prints celebrating the contemporary culture and heritage of Scotland’s iconic indigenous sport of shinty. The project has received funding from the Highland Culture – Take Pride, Take Part Investment Fund. 2016 Aberdein Considine Sutherland Cup winners Newtonmore colts begin the defence of their trophy at the Eilan where the Kilmallie colts, from the division below, come to visit. The reward for the victors is a home tie against Strathdearn Cup winners Lochcarron or the Glasgow Mid Argyll second team who were drawn to play at Battery Park. Last year’s runners-up Kingussie seconds host Skye Camanachd seconds in what should be a close tie with the winners off to Silversands to play the Aberdour seconds. Oban Lorn were given a first round bye so they will travel to take on whoever comes out on top in the tie between the Fort William and Kinlochshiel second teams at An Aird. Lochside Rovers are off to Braeview Park to play the Beauly colts in the knowledge that an away tie against Lovat or Kyles Athletic reserve sides awaits. The reconstituted Strathglass second team will play the Caberfeidh second team and whoever progresses will be at home to the Inverness reserves or Lewis Camanachd with all four of these sides playing in Marine Harvest North Division 2. Glengarry will have a particular interest in the opening round tie at Spean Bridge between the Lochaber and Inveraray second teams as they will have home advantage against the winners in the next round. Caithness will again field a side in the cup competitions and whilst they got a opening round bye, they will travel to play either Forces side SCOTS Camanachd or the Bute seconds in the next round. The Glenurquhart reserves and Boleskine were also given first round byes and they meet at Blairbeg in the second round.
