Edinburgh University - Shinty Club News and results from Edinburgh University shinty Club one of the university's oldest sporting teams. http://www.eusu.ed.ac.uk/clubs/shinty/ladies.html
Extractions: Shinty is Scotland's national sport and the University Club is one of the oldest in the Sports Union - founded in 1890. The game has sometimes been described as 'hockey without rules' but the lack of restrictions in shinty results in a hard, fast and skilful game with a big enjoyment factor. At Edinburgh, the Shinty Club offers a unique chance to represent the University as well as playing National League Shinty in the South Division 2. As a smaller Club we offer a great team spirit both on and off the park and we ensure that everyone gets involved in the action in one way or another. On the social front we are the organisers of the legendary Shinty Club ceilidhs and are great believers in celebrations or commiserations depending on the result! We are always looking for new players so if you are a current player who has moved to Edinburgh or a complete novice who wants to learn more about the game, turn up at any training session. You won't regret it and we'd be glad to see you.

Extractions: HOME ATHLETICS BADMINTON BASKETBALL ... FIRST SHINTY : INTRODUCTION Introduction Shinty is an indigenous game to Scotland which offers all participants a fast, exciting and fluid game to play. It has been enjoyed by many people for generations and will do so for many years to come. First Shinty First Shinty is a modified version of the adult game of shinty and is designed for primary-aged children. It was developed by the Camanachd Association along with Team Sport Scotland and has been designed to promote the teaching and playing of shinty at primary school level. The game is played by two teams of six players and provides opportunities for children to develop a wide range of skills specific to the game as well as skills that are general to all games playing. First Shinty is about acquiring basic skills and developing an understanding of the game through fun and enjoyment. It has been developed specially for children to enable them to learn the basic skills and rules and tactics of games playing. When comparing it to the adult version of shinty, first shinty has obvious benefits for children in that it uses smaller playing areas, simplified rules, small sided teams and modified, less threatening equipment. First shinty is particularly useful in primary school in that it gives children the opportunity to have more time on the ball and so gives them more time to develop and practice skills. The game can be played where there are limited playing areas and can be played indoors. Boys can play alongside girls and the nature of the game encourages fun and enjoyment in a safe environment.

Gyrotwister WINTERSPORT Snowbike Schneegolfen Broomball Curling INDOOR GAMES Robosoccer Shinty Diese raue Hockeyvariante kommt aus dem gälischen Schottland und wurde von den keltischen Stämmen vererbt. Shinty ist nur für harte Männer und Frauen geeignet, da es auf dem Spielfeld ganz schön ruppig zugeht. Der Sport des gebogenen Stockes (camanchd) ist die perfekte Leibesübung und schulte Kraft, Schnelligkeit, Ausdauer und vor allem den Mut der kriegerischen Völker. Clan gegen Clan, Gemeinde gegen Gemeinde und Berg gegen Tal. Über die Jahre hinweg wurde Shinty ohne festgeschriebene Regeln gespielt. Erst 1878 wurde von der Glasgow Celtic Society ein Regelwerk manifestiert. Diese Regeln sind fast gleich wie beim Fußball, wenn man einmal davon absieht, dass der Ball natürlich nicht mit dem Fuß gekickt werden darf. Nur mit dem Stock (caman) aus verleimten Nussbaum oder Esche darf der 20 cm große, 84 Gramm leichte und mit Leder überzogene Ball gespielt werden. Erlaubt hingegen ist - und das hebt Shinty eindeutig vom klassischen Hockey ab - den Schläger in jeglicher Position und somit auch in Kopfhöhe zu halten und den Ball damit aus jeder Lage schlagen zu dürfen. Schnell den Kopf einzuziehen kann beim Shinty also gar nicht so falsch sein. 12 Akteure plus 3 Ersatzspieler treten auf einem bis zu 150m langen und 70m breiten Spielfeld für die Dauer von zweimal 45 Minuten gegeneinander an. Der Schiedsrichter beginnt das Spiel, indem er den Ball in die Luft wirft und ihn die Spieler mit ihren Schlägern aus der Luft fischen. Für alle, in denen auch heute noch ein draufgängerischer Highlander schlummert, beginnt jetzt eine gute Gelegenheit seinen Mann bzw. seine Frau zu stehen.

Number the teams from opposite ends, so that the highest number in one team is facing the lowest in the other. Allocate a goal (chair) to each team, usually the one nearest the highest number. When you call a number the Beaver/Cub picks up the stick and tries to score a goal by getting the bean bag through the chair legs. The team who scores the most goals wins.
