Beauly have confirmed that Stephen MacLean will be their first team manager for the 2016 shinty season.

MacLean takes over from Roger Cormack who was at the helm for the last two seasons, competing in the Marine Harvest National Division and winning the Balliemore Cup in 2015.

This is a return to the Beauly hot-seat for Stephen MacLean who has served the club for over 30 years both as a player and a coach. He managed the club’s second team last season and was first team co-manager in 2012 and 2013, prior to Cormack’s appointment. He also had a spell in overall charge of the Beauly senior side.
