[edit] History
Glasgow has had many clubs over the years including Glasgow Cowal and Glasgow Skye whose name reflected the Highland area from which they drew their players. However, Glasgow Mid Argyll now draws its players from throughout Scotland. GMA was established in 1928 and won the Camanachd Cup for the first and only time in 1973.
The Club are currently looking to regain National league status.
The women's team won the women's Camanachd Cup, the Valerie Fraser trophy in 2006 for the first time but lost out on winning the national league title to Glengarry.
