  • For senior competitions, competitors to submit two of each tune type and play one.
  • After each competition, the floor will be open for all as at a Pipers’ Night.
  • The aim is to start meetings at 7.30pm (7.15pm for a 7.30pm start) to allow an earlier finish/more piping/more social time at the end of the meeting. Junior competitions are to start promptly and finish by 8.30pm.
  • In addition we are looking at having special meetings on weekends or another night of the week to enable others to attend.
