Camanachd Association Challenge Trophy - Camanachd Cup - Shinty Championship Trophy
The trophy was designed and constructed by Hamilton and Inches, Edinburgh, Scotland.
The player on the lid was modelled from Jock Dallas who played for Kingussie and whose great grandson, Ally Dallas, also played for Kingussie.
The trophy was first played for in 1896 with Kingussie beating Glasgow Cowal 2-0 at Needlefield Park, Inverness.
In 2006, the ancient trophy made its way to New York City for the Tartan Day celebrations, the first time it had ever left Scotland.
