Skye Camanachd Ladies 2 Badenoch & Strathspey Ladies 4 | |
08 June 2016 Skye Camanachd Ladies Head remain top of the Marine Harvest National Division 1 despite their 4-2 defeat to Badenoch & Strathspey Ladies at Pairc nan Laoch, Portree on Saturday 4 June 2016. Skye Camanachd Ladies Head Coach Robbie Gordon was without Catriona Kirk who was working but Izzy Law and Helen Lamond were added to the squad for this noon throw up. Skye came out on top when the teams met on league duty at the Dell earlier in the season but this was Badenoch’s day as the Islanders suffered only their second league defeat of the season. Lorna MacRae and Emma Gordon were on target for Skye. However a Zoe Reid brace and goals from Jeanette McGregor and Rhona McIntyre gave the visitors the win. The sides are also scheduled to meet in this season’s Valerie Fraser Camanachd Cup semi-finals. Second placed Lochaber failed to take advantage of Skye’s slip up though as they lost 2-1 to Glasgow Mid Argyll at Peterson Park, Yoker. Goals from GMA’s Lyndsay Michie & Kirsty Gray cancelled out Rebecca Stafford’s effort for Lochaber. After the weekend action, Skye remain top of the table with eight points from six games. They have two matches remaining – a crunch game at home to GMA at the end of the month and then away to Aberdour in August. However Lochaber, Badenoch & Strathspey - who have both also played six games – and Glasgow Mid Argyll, who have played five games, are all just two points behind. Skye Camanachd Ladies from: Sarah Jane Ferguson, Catriona Gibb, Christina MacDonald, Nicola MacSween, Ilana Paterson, Rhianna Kirk, Emma Gordon, Jenna Beaton, Lorna MacRae, Caitlin MacLean, Anna MacDonald, Kirsty Dibble, Abby MacLean.
