Glasgow – January 14, 2023 – The first CLASP (Competition League for Amateur Solo Pipers) in-person contest of the year was held at the National Piping Centre’s Otago Street premises. Aggregate winners were Grade 1: Eddie Boland, Clondalkin, Ireland; Grade 2: Jamie Gallagher, Glasgow; and Grade 3: Grant Walker. All of the piobaireachd events were judged by Cameron Drummond and Sarah Muir judged each of the light music competitions.

The next CLASP contest will be online, contestants recording their performances by video with a proctor auditing, judges then taking a week or so to assess them. The overall Grade 1 winner gets a flight and accommodation covered to compete in the amateur events at the Sun Belt Invitational in November 2023 at Maitland, Florida.
