Kilmallie Shinty Club is a shinty team from Caol, Fort William, Scotland. The club's first team are the North Division One Champions and the second team plays in North Division 3. The club most recently achieved prominence in the all-Fort William Camanachd Cup Final in 2005. == History == The club was founded in 1929 and is named after the parish of Kilmallie, within which the team plays. They were given a pitch at Corpach by James Weir of Annat Farm, where games took place until the pulp mill opened and they relocated to Canal Parks in Caol. The club has never folded or amalgamated with another club. Having won the MacGillvary Senior League in 1959 and 1960, the club won the Camanachd Cup in 1964 against Inveraray in Fort William but then fell on hard times, falling as low as North Division Four. The club slowly made progress from this low ebb by a concentration on youth policy and they climbed the leagues and are now a fixture in the Premier Division. The club then reached the Camanachd Cup Final in 2005 where they were defeated 3-2 by Fort William Shinty Club at An Aird, Fort William, in one of the closest and exciting finals for many years.() Whilst 2007 saw the first team's top-flight status come to an end despite a late season rally, the second team gained a revenge of sorts for the Camanachd Cup in 2005 by defeating Fort William Reserves in the Sutherland Cup Final on 17 August 2007 in Oban and also won the Strathdearn Cup the same year. The club finished second in North Division One in 2008 and 2009. The club won North Division One in 2010 and 2013. New league structuring by the Camanachd Association prevented Kilmallie being promoted in 2013 and the club are currently playing in the National Division looking for promotion to the Premier League. Kilmallie has had a number of successes over the years including the Camanachd Cup in 1964, the McTavish Cup in 1959,1961,1967 and 1969, and the Balliemore Cup in 1992 and 1993. 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「Kilmallie Shinty Club」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
