Piping Press

Taynuilt/ Lochearnhead/ Airth Games Results

A very busy Saturday on the Scottish Games circuit saw good turnouts at all three events despite the spread. Pleasant weather helped; very little rain around either in Argyll, Perthshire or Stirlingshire.

Notable were these games for the support from senior players – a healthy trend and one Piping Press wholeheartedly applauds. Let us hope more of the big names get out of doors for a tune during the remainder of the season – without forgetting to mention the pipers who regularly sustain these events year after year.
