Tulloch Homes Managing Director
Sandy Grant:
"It was a morale-booster for the sport to have the Tulloch Homes Camanachd Cup Final successfully completed last year, with Kinlochshiel making history.
"We're delighted to continue our sponsorship of shinty's Blue Riband competition against a backdrop of the return of top league action for the first time since 2019. Kingussie will be this year's hosts at The Dell in September -- and this opening ballot injects momentum into what seems to be a wide open contest as to which two teams will reach the final.
"Good luck to all the competing teams for a tournament to remember in shinty's full comeback season."
Camanachd Association President
Steven MacKenzie:
“It was my pleasure to be at the draw this afternoon alongside Sandy and Innes and the gents from Peat and Diesel. This year’s final is sure to be an extra special occasion given the associated entertainment in the run up to and after the final. I know the whole shinty community will extend their gratitude to Tulloch Homes for making the magic of the Camanachd Cup possible.”
