shinny
Scramble up trees
Shinny is informal hockey played on ice or pavement with minimal equipment and rules—typically just sticks, a puck or ball, and improvised goals: We played shinny on the frozen pond after school.
The word is primarily North American.
As a verb, to shinny (also shinny up) means to climb by gripping with arms and legs: He shinnied up the drainpipe.
