Lochcarron Camanachd draws its players from throughout the small communities of Wester Ross, from Ullapool to Applecross, Achintraid to Achnasheen, all Gaelic speaking areas. The Club was formed in 1883 and is the oldest in the West. Today we play in the centre of the village of Lochcarron on our own pitch at the Battery Park, named after the WW1 Ross Mountain Battery, in its day manned by local shinty players. The Club currently runs an adult team and several youth teams, keeping alive the traditions of shinty through weekly coaching lessons for our Primary School youngsters, girls and boys.
