Welcome to spòrsnis online news
We've added many of the reports over the last couple of years for you to have a look through, as they illustrate the hard work and dedication of the community in this ongoing development.
The building is now looking like the realisation of the architects drawings but there is still much to do inside and we are looking forward to raising the funds to continue the project soon.

From the spòrsnis committee
WE WERE ALL saddened and shocked with the news of John “Balloch” Matheson’s death. He will be sorely missed. John worked on spòrsnis for several months in 2000 and indeed was responsible for our successful funding application to Sportscotland.
Committee members Norman Thomson and Iain Gordon Macdonald met with Donald MacRitchie (Domhnall a’ Mhinisteir ex 26 Swainbost) recently to discuss assistance with the carriage of equipment from London to Ness. Donald is delighted to help and has offered to collect and deliver the equipment at no cost to spòrsnis. This is a wonderful gesture and will save us a substantial sum. He is also happy to assist with any other equipment we may require to be delivered. We are grateful to Donald for this. Donald and his wife Catriona were given a guided tour of spòrsnis with which they were most impressed.
The pace of work at the site has now increased considerably following the trade holidays and we will continue to monitor progress and report significant developments.
