Caberfeidh Camanachd Club is a shinty team from Strathpeffer, Ross and Cromarty, Scotland. The club has two teams. The senior team plays in Marine Harvest National and the second team in North Division Three. The name Caberfeidh comes from the Scots Gaelic for a stag's antlers, ''Cabar Feidh'' which is the symbol of Ross-shire.〔 〕 ==History== The club was founded in 1886 in the Spa Pavilion in Strathpeffer, celebrating its 125th anniversary in 2011. It was an amalgamation of the Strathpeffer club and the Knockfarrel club (). The name "Caberfeidh" was proposed by W.F. Gunn, who also represented the club at the inaugural AGM of the Camanachd Association.() In the early 1920s, the club became a junior side for two years due to a dearth of experienced players after the Great War but in 1926 the club defeated Beauly in the MacGillivray Cup Final and this began a glory run which lasted until the Second World War. The club won the Camanachd Cup in 1934 and 1939 and also lost in the final to Kyles Athletic in 1935.() They also won the MacGillivray League ten years in succession, winning 11 in total. They also appeared in eight MacTavish Cup finals, winning four. Indeed, the club's domination of the sport was so complete that one newspaper used the headline "No Other Worlds Left To Conquer".() After the war, the club was still successful although it never reached its intra-war heights again. The only comparable phase of domination was in the 1990s when the club won five successive Balliemore Cups, the intermediate championship. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Caberfeidh」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
