ba_game_orkneysCurling, golf, shinty, hurling — all Celtic sports. And don't forget Ba, the toughest, meanest sport in the world. In the capital of the Orkneys a town divided fights north/south to score a goal with the ball or 'ba. Over roofs, through homes, zigzagging up/down streets — it's no holds barred as each team is determined to win. Then when it's all over, for this game is played only on New Year's Day and these are Scots, both sides retire to the goal winner's home for more than a few drams.

Shown above: Ba in all it's fighting glory.
