North Coast Pipe Band

Grade 3 ties for 6^th at the World Pipe Band Championships!

Congratulations to the North Coast Grade 3 band who tied for 6^th in the Grade 3B Finals at the World Pipe Band Championships this year in Glasgow, Scotland! The drum corps earned an impressive 4^th place in drumming in a field of 22 bands.

The band will return to Scotland to try to win the Grade 3 event in 2021.

The Grade 4 and 5 bands joined the Grade 3 in Scotland competing in the 4A and 4B events respectively. The trip offered a great opportunity to strengthen and grow both programs. The debut of the Grade 5 band was recognized by the RSPBA on the day as the band tuned up for competition.

Their Grade 2 band has been making the trip for many years but making their first trip with the Grade 4B Band North Coast from Cleveland, Ohio USA. They compete at 11:00 #WPBC19 pic.twitter.com/PBSTGFd7AU
