Badenoch will be represented in the Under 14 and Under 17 North v South shinty matches taking place this weekend.
The two fixtures will be staged at An Aird in Fort William on Sunday.
There is a strong Newtonmore contingent in the U14 squad.
The sport’s top young talents will take to the field from noon with the Fraser MacPhee Memorial Cup (U14s) followed by the hotly anticipated U17 encounter at 2pm.
Camanachd Association youth director Willie MacDonald commented: “There is no doubt in my mind that it would have been a real challenge for this year’s respective coaches to narrow down the pool of talent to the below squads, however, what is clear is that we have a lot of top talent on display this weekend.
"This experience will be formative for many of the players involved who will have aspirations of moving through the pathway and representing Scotland in the near future.
"My best of luck to all the sides involved, I am looking forward to a fascinating encounter.”
