2017 Skye Camanachd Player of the Year Awards | |
18 November 2017 The 2017 Skye Camanachd player of the year awards were presented at a celebration to mark the club’s 125th year at the Portree Community Centre on Saturday 18 November 2017. With 240 people in attendance, the 2017 club player of the year was defender Ally MacDonald who received the John “The Caley” Trophy. Ally MacDonald played most of the season at full back, covering for Steven Morrison’s absence, and his contribution went a long way to aiding Skye’s Marine Harvest National Division title success. Second team keeper and captain Ryan Morrison was rewarded for some superb performances when he collected the second team player of the year award. Marine Harvest WCA National player of the year Lorna MacRae captained Skye Camanachd Ladies to Marine Harvest National Division 1 and Marine Harvest Valerie Fraser Cup successes and she rounded off a terrific season by being named Skye Camanachd Ladies player of the year as well as being awarded the coveted “Caman DR”. The Angus Murchison trophy, presented to the person who has done most for the club off the field of play, was awarded to Alice Martin who has done so much behind the scenes for many years. William MacKinnon, who plays senior shinty for Inverness, was named U17 player of the year with Taylor Matheson taking the U14 award. |
