On that occasion, Glen Mackintosh scored in a 3-0 victory over arch-rivals Kyles Athletic. He also found the net as 'More beat Kinlochshiel 2-1 to reach this year's final. The league leaders have already won the MacTavish Cup and are bidding for a treble.
Oban Camanachd have not won the biggest prize in Shinty since famously interrupting a decade of Kingussie dominance 20 years ago. On that occasion Gordon MacIntyre, who had lost an eye playing shinty, scored the winning goal. The Argyll club are contesting their first final since 2001. Andrew McCuish, the tournament's top scorer this season, bagged two goals in their 4-2 win over Lochaber in their semi-final.
