The 89th Stenhousemuir troop took part recently in a shinty introductory session as part of their Scottish Thistle Award. Heather Macdougall, the Squirrel section lead volunteer, a shinty coach and, herself a former player and part of the team which won the Camanachd Cup Final some years ago, led the session with assistance from her husband Johnnie, the Beaver section lead volunteer. They hired the sports hall at Carronvale House, the BB headquarters. All the gear was supplied and the scouts learned enough in the session to try a game at the end. All the scouts loved it – well worth trying out something new!
