Lochbroom Camanachd is a shinty club from Ullapool, Scotland. It was founded in 1992. It plays in Marine Harvest North Division 3. The club re-entered senior shinty in 2006 having gone into abeyance in 2000.
The club was founded in 1992 but went into abeyance in 2000, however the club maintained a youth system which eventually reaped dividends and the club re-emerged at senior level in 2005 thanks to the efforts of Ruaraidh Hughes. Hughes was nominated for the BBC's Unsung Hero Award at 2005's BBC Sports Personality of the Year due to a combination of his young age and struggles with Haemophilia.
The first season back in the senior ranks in 2006 saw the Broom perform admirably but only finish in 9th out 10 teams, one place above fellow new boys Ardnamurchan Camanachd. 2007 has seen an improvement in the young team, the club won the inaugural Cuach a' Chuain Sgith match played against Lewis Camanachd and has of 4th September 2007 overhauled their previous league points total.
