Interestingly enough, a pickup game of ice hockey in Canada is known in some areas as Shinny.... There is strong speculation that Ice hockey basically developed from Scottish and Irish immigrants adapting their sports to the Canadian winters.
I'd say both shinty and hurling developed from some common ancestor played by our shared Gaelic ancestors, but different elements of the game were focussed on in the codification of the games in the modern age.
The stick is called the CAMAN
Hockey is a lot more restrictive what you can do with the stick. Can only use one side. Limited to how high you can lift it. Also CAMAN is longer and the blade is lofted like a shorter iron in golf but on both sides.
Many Shinty players are excellent golfers. When playing the ball if they can they swing the CAMAN in a very similar way to a golf club. Robert MacIntyre the professional golfer played forOban Camanachd
Ok ok i thought he said Cannon :D my bad
If you want to compare shinty and hurling, there is an annual international tie (played home and away) between Scotland and Ireland using a hybrid of the two sets of rules. There are a few videos on TH-cam, and it's also usually televised on BBC Scotland or BBC Alba.
fraser jackson The thing i noticed from watching those games is that hurleys break much more easily than shinty sticks
The offside rule is in shinty as well it’s just if a player is in the box before the ball is hit in
Whenever I watched this on ALBA channel, the commentary would switch from english to gaelic and the referees seemed to all be retired village policemen ("do that again dougal and ill be having words with your mother") As a large youngster,living in a predominately scottish area of Manchester I played in goal because I filled a lot of it. 🍗🍰🍔👍😸
Similar to hockey but more aggressive. Full contact is allowed. Look for the tackle 2019 camanachd cup
In case you haven't already, have a look at hurling. It's like shinty on gear.
Ive done a few hurling videos :D
The games of hurling and shinty have strong historic links and the terminology is similar like caman though hurl or hurley is more often used in hurling however the games have diverged quite a bit .They are still similarities like a huge pitch similar tackle rules and the fact that both are amateur, however there is no debate about whether shinty could go pro the biggest game of the year only has 5000 at most ,this is because its largely confined to the highlands which is very sparsely populated.As regards which is tougher idk but i do know that the stick is much less forgiving than a hurley from watching shinty hurling internationals.
It looks like most sports are just based on some already existing sport. Football comes from rugby, though now it is it own unique sport, baseball comes from townball and townball comes from rounders.basketball seems to be original, I don't think there was anything like it before.
I played Shinty for 35 years and can assure you that the similarity to hockey is superficial; both games use curved sticks. That is it. In hockey, you can only use one side of a stick; in Shinty you use three sides. The face of a Shinty caman is angled on both sides, so that a player can strike and loft a ball over great distances. An aerial ball can be grounded with one of three faces. Defenders camans have steeper faces, middle field less so and forwards are more vertical, in order to hit the ball with a flatter trajectory. If you go back far enough, Shinty and Hurling have the same origin in the game of Iomanachd ("Ioman" means to drive an object forward. "achd" is like "ing" in English. Iomanachd equals driving/striking.). In Ireland, before Hurling became codified, under the GAA, that game was played below a line between Dublin and Galway and was known as Leinster Hurling. North of that line Càmànacht was played. In Scottish Gaelic, Shinty is called Camanachd. Càmànacht was sometimes referred to as "Winter Hurling" because until recently Càmànacht/Shinty/Camanachd was a Winter sport. Hurling has always been a Summer sport.
In terms of differences with hockey, throughout my Shinty career, I have broken three fingers, two toes, my nose and right cheek bone. I had ruptured tendon inserts on my right heel, a chipped bone in my right wrist, displaced bones in my right hand, seven stitches on the top of my head, three on each temple and a total of 34 on my legs. I have also played against two men who have been blinded in one eye. Shinty is not hockey.
There is also ample evidence to demonstrate that the Canadian religion of ice hockey has its origins in the Highland game of Shinty/Camanachd.
We used to play shinty in junior school on the concrete playground 😂
In the highlands hockey is only played by lassies
You would have to see a live game to see that its different to hocky . It's a lot faster , the ball is in the air a lot more than this clip shows, and it's full contact plenty broken bones and stitches which I had plenty of in school
I've watched the last 2 finals so I get how fast hurling is!
I play for Inveraray shinty club second team and so do some of my pals
Used to play this in school😂 instead of calling it shinty we called it hockey
It does seem almost identical
This is NOT field hockey!!!
How do you spell Hockey in Scotland " Shinty "
Haha
Its stickball🤣football🤔
👍🤓
😑😑 nothing like hockey!!!!!
Hockey in the air!?! :D
lmao this is just a hack version of hockey
Sry but i have to respond lol. Sry to break it to you. but Shinty has been a sport here in the highlands longer than Scotlands known history. Over 2000 years. Hockey which i did have to google to be honest, only started in the 18th century.
