Skye Camanachd look set to appoint Ross Cowie in a Director of Shinty role as the club look to organise their backroom team ahead of the new shinty season.
Cowie was first team assistant manager to Willie MacRae last season but the Director of Shinty role will see him take an over-arching view of the performances of all the Islanders; teams – U14A, U14B, U17, Ladies, second team and first team.
Skye are thought to be the first club to appoint a Director of Shinty whilst Cowie, a former Camanachd Cup winning manager, has amassed great experience over the years which should stand him in good stead in his new capacity.
