2018 Tulloch Homes Camanachd Cup Semi-Final Draw | |
09 July 2018 Kilmallie’s reward for their shock Tulloch Homes Camanachd Cup quarter-final win over Kyles Athletic is a semi-final tie against tournament favourites Kinlochshiel or Newtonmore who meet this weekend. Award winning Scottish singer Julie Fowlis made the draw in Inverness when she also paired Lovat and Kingussie. The tie between Kinlochshiel/ Newtonmore and Kilmallie takes place at An Aird, Fort William on Saturday 28 July with Lovat and Kingussie meeting at the Bught Park, Inverness a fortnight later. Kilmallie manager Mark MacPherson said, “No one should under-estimate Kilmallie. We are in a good place just now and I have a full squad available who are all raring to go.” Camanachd Association President Keith Loades said: “Kilmallie will be keen to test themselves against either Kinlochshiel or Newtonmore and both Lovat and Kingussie will be looking forward to getting to the final. Indeed there is a possibility we will have a repeat of last year’s final when Newtonmore defeated Lovat.” George Fraser, Chief Executive of competition sponsors Tulloch Homes added: "It's an exciting draw featuring quality teams and it sets the stage for two fascinating semi-final ties." The 2018 Tulloch Homes Camanachd Cup Final takes place at Mossfield, Oban on Saturday 15 September. |
