Saturday saw the 2nd annual Royal Scottish Pipe Band Association - Northern Ireland Branch, Tyrone Championships take place in Dungannon Park.
It is one of the smaller competitions drawing local Pipe Bands but it still managed to draw some of the major bands including the two top bands in Ireland, both former Champions of various accolades right up to the World title. St Laurence O`Toole from Dublin and our own Field Marshall Montgomery Pipe Band. Field Marshall came away top on the day in Grade 1 and all the results can be read over here:-
