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 nom-de-plume, 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. The shield was recovered for this event and was presented for the next few years until its long stay in Killmallie from 2004-2013. 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.
