The Bullough Cup is shinty’s reserve cup competition, and is open to 2nd teams playing in the south region, as well as England.

The cup takes its name from Sir George Bullough, a Victorian who owned the Isle of Rum in the Inner Hebrides. He first presented the trophy to Ballachuilish in 1906, who went on to win the first three competitions.

In its initial years, teams from North Argyll dominated the competition, before a shift to Oban domination. Due to the amalgamation of the Dunn and Southern leagues, the trophy became accessible to more teams. In 2005, the competition was ran as a league cup, leading to teams such as Col-Glen, London and Aberdour entering the competition. This led to the first Camanachd Association fixture in over 80 years taking place in England.

The current champions are Lochside Rovers, who lifted their 25th cup with a win over Bute II. Ballachuilish have triumphed 11 times, whilst Inverary and Oban Celtic can both boast 10 wins.
