 Shinty is also spreading to North America; though originally played in the 18th and 19th century by Scottish immigrants, the sport died out.However, it is enjoying a revival; teams such as Northern California Camanachd Club (NCCC), Central California Cammanchd (CCC)), and Oregon Shinty-Camanachd (OSC) play at Highland Games and other venues across the USA.A small pocket of shinty has also started up in Russia as of 2014.
