Women's shinty is a sport, played almost entirely within Scotland, identical to the men's game – with the same rules, same sized pitch and same equipment. However, its history is significantly different. Social pressures – along with the broader game's self-image – resulted in a largely hidden history until comparatively recently. It is administered by the Women's Camanachd Association (Camanachd nam Ban) ==Early history== Women would have traditionally played shinty, but would not have been able to compete in games such as Iomain Challainn, the new year shinty matches which were a tradition across the Scottish Highlands. Women would have been restricted to providing the refreshments off the pitch. However, in the mid-1990s there was a movement to create some form of competitive opportunities for women, influenced by the fact that many girls would be able to play shinty at Primary School level, and indeed under-14 level but would, for whatever reason unable to play at senior-adult level. In the 1990s, teams from Glengarry, Oban and Dunaad were beginning to play each other, this resulted in the Women's Camanachd Association being set up in 2001 to run the league and cup system discretely from the men's game.() 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「Women's shinty」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
