Skye Camanachd’s John Gillies was named National U14 Player of the Year at the 2014 Annual Marine Harvest Shinty Awards which took place in the Kingsmills Hotel, Inverness on Friday 17 October 2014.
John Gillies has seen plenty shinty action during the 2014 shinty season. As well as captaining Skye Camanachd U14 to the Marine Harvest North Division 1 title, he led the side to the MacMaster Cup Final where they were beaten by Oban Camanachd U14.
He was also part of the Skye Camanachd U17 side which reached the London Shield semi-finals where they lost out to Kingussie U17.
And if that wasn’t enough, Gillies broke into the Skye Camanachd second team earlier in the season and he has been a permanent fixture in the side ever since.
His performances have earned rave reviews from opposition clubs and we are sure that if he keeps working hard, he can go on to even bigger things.
