12 June 2021 This week’s Skye Camanachd results are in. The Skye Camanachd first team were scheduled to play a Mowi Senior League A fixture against the Lochaber first team at Spean Bridge on Saturday 12 June 2021. However the match was postponed at the start of the week because of covid issues in the Lochaber area. The Skye Camanachd second team were 7-4 winners in an entertaining Mowi North League A meeting with Lochcarron at Pairc nan Laoch, Portree on Saturday 12 June 2021. Iain MacLellan gave Skye a 10 minute lead, scoring towards the Skeabost end of the ground, but Calum Dean Morris levelled just 4 minutes later. Niall Arnott put Lochcarron, who travelled with just twelve players, in front on 17 minutes and another from Calum Dean Morris on 25 minutes made it 3-1. A second from Iain MacLellan on 40 minutes cut Lochcarron’s lead to 3-2 at the break. Skye made a great start to the second half with Taylor Matheson levelling the contest with a smart shot. A superb strike from wide on the left on 62 minutes from skipper Ian MacPherson gave Skye the lead before Daniel Morrison’s birthday goal a couple of minutes later, a firm strike from outside the D on the right, made it 5-3. Lochcarron fought back and Peter MacKenzie hammered home a fierce strike on 86 minutes to make it 5-4. However Skye added two more goals at the death as James Robertson finished well on 88 minutes with Iain MacLellan completing his hat-trick a minute late to make the final score 7-4. Skye Camanachd U17 won 11-8 in an exciting Mowi U17 London Shield League D meeting with Caberfeidh U17 at Castle Leod on Tuesday 8 June 2021. Skye led 2-0, 2-1 and then 3-1 in this incredible contest and were 9-4 in front at one stage before Cabers scored three times in 3 minutes. The Islanders were never behind in the match but equally, Caberfeidh never gave up. At the final count, Taylor Matheson scored seven times, Callum Gilles bagged a brace and Lewis MacDonald and Cameron Long got the others. Skye Camanachd U14 beat Kinlochshiel U14 2-0 in their Mowi U14 North League C match at Pairc nan Laoch, Portree on Friday 11 June 2021. The goals that made the difference were scored by Ruairidh MacLeod, when he spectacularly took a cross first time in the air to score, and Alasdair Stuibhart, with a powerful shot from the edge of the D which gave the keeper no chance. All matches were played in accordance with the current restrictions which meant supporters were not be permitted to attend. |
