National Division outfit Glenurquhart Shinty Club have discovered their opponents in the semi finals of the MacTavish Cup – and they have avoided the Badenoch giants in the draw at Lochcarron Primary School.
The Glen booked their place in the final four with a 1-0 win over Inverness as David MacLennan's 52nd minute goal proved decisive.
That has them just one win away from a cup final, and to get there they will need to beat Skye.
The islanders were the big winners of the quarter finals, winning 5-1 at Beauly – led by Ruaraidh MacLeod's hat-trick.
On the other side of the draw, the two favourites to lift the trophy will face off against each other as Newtonmore host defending champions Kingussie.
Matches will take place on Saturday, May 13.
Camanachd Association chief executive officer Derek Keir said: “We are thrilled to see such enthusiasm and participation in the cottages.com MacTavish Cup draw.
