The Internet – April 2022 – Comunn na Piobaireachd (NZ), better known as the Piobaireachd Society of New Zealand, held a preliminary online competition to coincide with the Easter weekend designed to assist competitors with preparations preparing for the main competitions to be held in late June. Willie Rowe of Rata, New Zealand, took the Clasp section for previous winners of the Gold Medal, which this year was won by Callum Cairn of Wellington. Entry was restricted to members of the organization, and competitors had to submit music from lists set for each event. The number of prizes awarded was dependent on the number of entries.

The organization was formed “to foster and encourage the study and playing of Piobaireachd in New Zealand.” Comunn na Piobaireachd (NZ) was the first overseas body to be affiliated with the Piobaireachd Society.
