	The Shinty Website - History
		During the period of these two universal conflicts, organised shinty was discontinued and many of the playing generations then were lost to campaigns far distant from the pitches where they had followed this deeply-loved recreation of their ancestors.
		In common with other sports, shinty moved out of a long previous history of unwritten rules and widely differing local variations in the last quarter of the nineteenth century.
		The Glasgow Celtic Society has continued to operate the oldest competition of all in the South Clubs with the MacTavish Cup, established in 1898, as the equivalent for North clubs.

	University Of Dundee Hurling Club
		The difference between those previous fixtures and the 2004 initiative is that the latter is founded upon a now established infrastructure of university club hurling and the uptake of hurling in the universities in Britain, but particularly in Scotland.
		The University of Abertay have entered their hurlers into the shinty leagues and competitions and, in fact, in their inaugural season 2002/2003 these Irish lads won the Scottish university shinty cup, The Littlejohn Vase.
		This fixture is therefore written into the British Universities Hurling Calendar and provides an ideal opportunity for British Universities hurling to acknowledge the talent in the form of the best combined team which we describe as the University Hurling All Stars playing a Scottish University Shinty Select.

		Although the club is unaware of anyone joining the mile high club, we cannot discount the possibility that a member may have gained a solo member by discreetly using the hand in the pocket technique.
		The club day was very successful, with many of the girls (and a few of the Men’s club) coming down to cheer their friends and fellow club mates on, and raising some money too, and all this on top of the first class hockey that was played!
		The University side radiated confidence that never boarded on complacency, every ball was fought for, every space was patrolled; the hosts never lost sight of the end result, they wanted a comprehensive victory and at the end of the first quarter, they were well on their way with a nine goal lead.
