Cuillin FM have confirmed that that their sponsorship deal with Marine Harvest has been renewed which will allow them to continue their live shinty coverage throughout the 2014 shinty season.
The sponsorship allows Cuillin FM to take their outside broadcast unit to various shinty venues and, as well as listening locally, shinty fans from across the world can pick up the online stream at www.cuillinfm.co.uk. Cuillin FM’s “Camanachd Live” programme covered 30 shinty matches last season.
The west coast radio station’s first shinty broadcast was in February 2010 when they covered the Iomain Cholmcille meeting between Alba and Eirinn at Pairc nan Laoch, Portree. They have been providing live commentary for domestic shinty matches since the start of the 2011 shinty season.
The coverage is provided by match commentator Alasdair Bruce and and match summarisers Keith MacKenzie and Drew Millar.
