Hi everyone!

I'm Hamish Crofters, the Lt. Aider for the University of St Andrews Shinty Club. We’re thrilled to announce the launch of our first-ever student shinty bursary, set to begin in the 2025–26 academic year!

Our goal is to raise £1,000 to fund this annual bursary, which will support a club member with essential costs like boots, camans, shin guards, membership fees, and more. Once we hit the target, any extra funds will go towards reducing the overall cost of membership fees for everyone in the club.

This bursary will help break down financial barriers and bring more talented players from across Scotland into the sport we love. Moreover, this bursary will be the first of its kind for St Andrews Shinty and it is, therefore, imperative that our goal is reached to ensure that we can ensure greater accessibility for students in the future.

Any donation, no matter how small, will be greatly appreciated.

Have a lovely day!
