This CLASP competition was held over two days, Friday 31st October and 1st November. CLASP stewards greeted the competitors via the Zoom platform. Adult amateur pipers from all over the world joined the Zoom meeting at their allocated time and a live video recording was captured by each competitor. Thanks to our judges: Douglas Murray, Sarah Muir, John Dew, Steven Leask and Logan Tannock for judging this competition. Also, a special mention to the volunteer stewards: Stephen McCusker, Anna Binder, Gill Cairns and Gordon Cairns. Crit sheets will be sent out over the next few days.
