leftarm1=0066CC|body1=0066CC|rightarm1=0066CC|shorts1=1A2D69|socks1=0066CC| (Abbotstown, Ireland; 2 November 2019) (Ennis, Ireland; 27 October 2012) (Dublin, Ireland; 2 August 1924)}} The Scotland national shinty team is the team selected to represent Scotland and the sport of shinty in the annual composite rules Shinty/Hurling International Series against the Ireland national hurling team. The team is selected by the Camanachd Association.
As well as the men's senior team currently headed by coach Garry Reid, a men's under-21 team and women's team also competes against equivalent Irish sides each year, however these matches have not taken place since the 2020 pandemic. A men's under 17 team plays against Irish County select teams, which triumphed over Dublin and Wexford select sides in 2024.
After a hiatus, 2023 saw the return of the Shinty/Hurling international, with Roddy MacDonald captaining the side to a 0-22 to 2-08 loss in Newry, as Scotland conceded the Mowi Quiach for the first time since 2014. Robert Mabon was the 2024 captain as Ireland triumphed 3-16 to 5-7 at Cussack Park, Ennis, with Ireland equalising in the dying moments, before winning the tie in extra time.
