Skye Camanachd forward Iain Nicolson suffered a broken thumb when he took part in the Gaelic Scotland ALBA v Micheal Breathnach GAA game in Galway last weekend.
The injury means that Nicolson misses this weekends North Division 2 clash with Newtonmore, but he should be fit again by the time Skye Camanachd start pre-season training in February 2009.
Nicolson established himself in the Skye Camanachd first team in 2008. His season highlights include scoring the last gasp, extra time, winning goal against Glenurquhart in the Balliemore Cup semi final at Drum na Drochit and he scored the equalising goal in the Balliemore Cup Final win against Kilmallie at Beauly's Brae View Park.
