Fantastic result yesterday. Campbeltown Junior Brass are once again Scottish Youth Champions for Development Section! Big congratulations to the players, Katrina and Jamie for all their hardwork!

Fantastic group of young players supported by an equally fantastic group of mentors!

Well done guys. I notice from yesterday's Herald that the Argyll and Bute Schools Brass Band took part in the competition for the first time. Are there any Campbeltown players in that? There used to be quite a few in the A&B Schools Concert Band.

Fantastic result for the band, achieved through loads of dedication and hard work on the parts of all involved - not to mention copious quantities of raw Campbeltown talent! Winners for three years in a row!
Well done, too, to Argyll Brass in the Novice Section. This little band, comprising players from Lochgilphead and the Mid-Argyll area, has only been going since January and has already managed a Silver Award at the Scottish Youth Championships!
The rest of the country is left wondering what you feed them down there. . . .

Brilliant achievement, well done all involved. What talented children we have in Kintyre! And wonderful dedicated adults!

Don't get or read the Courier (for obvious reasons), but tend to agree. Well to to the Brass Band
