Scotland’s ferry crisis left young shinty player having to kayak to make match

Scotland’s ferry crisis left a young shinty player trying to get to a match with no other option but to use her kayak.

Katie Connolly was trying to get across Loch Linnhe in the Highlands last Sunday from Corran to her home village of Ardgour where she was due to play.

But with the match starting at 1pm she didn’t have enough time for the one hour 15 minute diversion by road via Fort William.
