title: Sir William Sutherland Cup
text: # Sir William Sutherland Cup
  
  The Sir William Sutherland Cup, more commonly known simply as the Sutherland Cup, is a trophy in the sport of shinty. It is the national cup competition for junior sides, the equivalent of the Camanachd Cup for those sides in lower league competition. The current (2022) holders are Newtonmore.
  
  ## History
  
  The trophy was donated by Sir William Sutherland M.P. in order to allow "junior" (i.e. small clubs) the opportunity for national competition and was first played for in 1923 with Newtonmore defeating North Bute 3-2. Sir William had previously donated another cup of the same name for competition.
  
  The trophy is at present known officially as the Highland Industrial Supplies Sir William Sutherland Cup due to a sponsorship deal with Highland Industrial Supplies.
  
  In 2011, the final was held in Aberdeen for the first time to mark the 150th anniversary of Aberdeen University Shinty Club.
  
  The 2017 final was postponed due to heavy rain in Fort William in late july, and was to be replayed on September 16 between Lochside Rovers and Kingussie.
  
  2023 marks the 100th Anniversary of the 1st Sutherland Cup Final and will take place at Blairbeg Park, Drumnadrochit.
  
  ## 2012 Controversy
  
  In 2012, Newtonmore won the cup with a 5-4 victory over Kingussie. However, More were stripped of the title due to having played an ineligible player, Callum Stewart, in both the final win and the semi-final victory over Glenurquhart.
