Traditional sport set to be recognised on coin

Cammag to feature on Christmas keepsake

The Isle of Man's traditional sport is set be celebrated on the Christmas two-pound coin. 

Cammag is similar to hurling and shinty in other Celtic nations and was the Island's national sport until the early 20th century when football found its way to Manx shores. 

The sport was played during the festive season and traditionally on Boxing Day. 

The coin is available to buy from the Isle of Man Post Office here.
