Highland (Cumberland) Wrestling
at the Culloden
Scottish gathering & games
Culloden Georgia

Wrestling was Canceled for 1999
I found this out AM 4 April 1999.
All the space was be needed for a super big heavy athletics competition.
Maybe wrestling will return, if they get a bigger field.

Let me know if Culloden will have Wrestling
at their Games in 2000
and I will note it on this web page.

The next wrestling will be:

  1. Loch Norman Highland Games (Charlotte NC) April 15-16, 2000
  2. Gatlinburg Scottish Festival & Games (Gatlinburg TN) May 20-21, 2000
  3. Indian Springs Games (near Jackson GA) June 3, 2000
  4. Grandfather Mt. Highland Games (Linville NC) July 7-9, 2000
Dates are from http://www.shirenet.com/MacLachlan/nfgames.html
and are the dates of the games.
The wrestling may be either day or both days.
If you know where other Highland Wrestling is held, let me know.

Results

1st Kevin Ferguson (clan Ferguson)
2nd* Ryan Hearn (Hern is found in Stirling District which has a tartan.)
3rd Jeff Kee (Clan MacKay)
*Alex Fraser (Clan Fraser) should have been in elimination for 2nd place so could have won 2nd or 3rd -- my oversight.
If Ryan & Jeff held on to 2nd & 3rd then Joshua & Alex would have wrestled for 4th place.
Christopher Boling should have wrestled Joshua or Alex for 5th place.
If Christopher Boling would have lost to Joshua then Christopher would have wrestled David Shaw (Clan Shaw & Farguharson) for 6th place.
Next year, I'd like to complete the contests so that everyone has a place determined.
