List of Shinty-Hurling international matches between Ireland and Scotland

Add links
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The first known international fixture between a Scottish shinty team and Irish hurling team occurred in 1896, when the London Camanchd and London GAA local clubs met in a friendly.[1] The following year, the first official series featuring an amalgamation of rules from both sports, occurred at Celtic Park in Scotland between Glasgow Cowal and Dublin Celtic. International tests between all-Scotland and all-Ireland teams were played intermittently prior to World War II. There were several attempts to establish regular meetings dating back to the Tailteann Games in 1928.[2] However, anti-British sentiment within the GAA prevented a formalised series from occurring until the 1970s.[3] It was not until 2003 that the Camanachd Association and the Gaelic Athletic Association committed to a yearly series, known as the Shinty–Hurling International Series.[4] To date 48 fixtures have been played with Ireland winning 23 matches, Scotland winning 21 matches, and four draws.
