Английская Википедия:Fingal Memorial Shield
Шаблон:Short description The Fingal Memorial Shield is a trophy in the sport of shinty. It is currently the trophy presented to the winners of the St Andrew's Sixes, an international six-a-side tournament.
History
The shield was presented in memory of Hugh MacCorquodale, (1866-1937) who wrote for the Oban Times, under the pen name, Fingal.[1] The trophy was presented by the Gaelic Society of Glasgow[2] in order to encourage shinty in the South.
The Fingal tournament was originally played in Glasgow at Glasgow University's then home of Garscadden.
In the 1970s, the tournament was held at Glasgow and latterly at St. Andrew's, St. Andrew's University Shinty Club who were set up in 1967. The success of the tournament was such that when St Andrews University Shinty Club won the 1975 Shinty Yearbook Trophy its hosting of the very successful six-a-side competition was specifically mentioned. However, by the late 1980s, the tournament had fallen into abeyance and the trophy itself went missing.
The St Andrew's Sixes was re-established in 1999 and has been played most years since with both men and women taking part. The shield was recovered for this event and was presented for the next few years until its long stay in Killmallie from 2004 to 2013. It was again recovered for 2013 and was presented to Aberdour Shinty Club. All previous winners were added to the trophy.
Aberdour were the 2017 winners. 2018 saw the first Women's St Andrews Sixes event alongside the men's with The English Shinty Association winning the Women's Trophy and West Coast Nomads winning the Fingal Shield. 2019 saw Cornwall Shinty Club meet London Camanchd in a hotly contested final, which London went on to win 2–1.
