With the shinty season drawing to a close, we have a look back at the 2009 Marine Harvest Award winners. Norman MacArthur brought MacTavish Cup success to Newtonmore in 2009 and came within a whisker of taking the title from rivals Kingussie. MacArthur was an accomplished player in his day and following his retirement, he put together a Newtonmore side which scored goals from several different positions in 2009 before eventually conceding the title on goal difference. He was a popular choice for manager of the year and he has gone on to enhance his reputation further by winning the 2010 Scottish Hydro Premier Division title with Newtonmore. MacArthur was unable to attend the event so the award was collected on his behalf by his daughter Gayle MacKenzie. |
