Season 2001/2 Highlights
GLENORCHY FIRST TEAM STAY IN THE TOP FLIGHT
.... and SECOND TEAM WIN PROMOTION FROM SOUTH DIVISION 2
The Glenorchy Ground at Dalmally, with Cruachan in the background
Looking East from the ground, towards Ben LuiThe Glenorchy Ground is at the west end of Dalmally - turn into the
Mart and through the gate at the west end of the Mart to reach the pitch.
Old letters and poetry show that
organised shinty was played in Dalmally in and about 1880. These games were played by
teams from each side of the River Orchy for a cup presented by a Mr Macdonald, who had
returned from Australia. The contests took place on New Year's Day and continued up to
1932. While the game continued to be played in the district, it was not until 1947 that
Glenorchy Camanachd was formed.
Home games are played at the Mart Park, Dalmally, and there are changing facilities at the
Auction Market there. Apart from a pitch at Craig Farm when the Mart pitch was flooded,
all home games since 1947 have been played at the Mart Park.
After a period of some success in the 1950's, a severe shortage of players forced the club
to fold in 1960 but it was re-formed in 1966 and has played continuously since then.
As a junior team the Munro Shield was won in 1952 and 1959, the Campbell Cup in 1958, the
Bullough Cup in 1973 and the Sutherland Cup in 1990.
As a senior team the South League Championship was won in 1990.
Events which gave satisfaction were the winning of the Munro Shield in 1952, the club's
first trophy, the winning of the Bullough Cup in 1973, the first triumph after a period of
fifteen years, the winning of the Sutherland Cup and the championship of Division I in
1990. To these must now be added the First Division Championship once again in 1999, and
the return to the Premier league that was earned in the same year by a solid performance
in both legs against Caberfeidh.
Glenorchy has always been a small but enthusiastic village team which has had a struggle
to remain sound financially. Of notable personalities connected with shinty in Glenorchy,
there are Donnie MacDougall who got the club going again in 1966 and Mr and Mrs Kenny
Campbell who did so much to encourage and coach boys at school. The club supports two
junior shinty clubs, at Dalmally and Taynuilt in local first shinty leagues, who come
together as Cruachanside to play in National Competition.
