Welcome to the website of the Lothian and Borders Branch of The Royal Scottish Pipe Band Association.

INNERLEITHEN DRUM MAJORS CANCELLED
Due to lack of entries the DM events have been cancelled

The Lothian and Borders Branch is one of the largest in the RSPBA, they are represented by almost 40 bands across all 8 competitive grades.  They also run 7 branch contests each season at Dunbar, Bathgate, Hawick, Innerleithen, North Berwick, Melrose and Peebles.

The aim of this website is to keep all branch bands and interested parties of piping and drumming in the Lothian’s updated on all the events within the Lothian and Borders Branch.

You will find all the information on Branch Contests including Registrations, Playing Requirements, Judges and Draws, information on Branch Bands including their achievements in major contests and links to their web sites, all the Branch Results and Champions Tables, minutes from Branch Meetings, information on Structured Learning as well as all the General News from the branch and their bands.

Branch Bands will also be able to contact their National Council and Music Board Representatives with any questions they may have.

We hope you will enjoy this new branch website, designed for the needs of the branch by the branch.

Please feel free to leave a message on our Guestbook, many of the ideas implemented on this website have come from the bands and our members, with your feedback we will continue to deliver a site meeting the needs of the bands and our members.

Our website is sponsored by RT Shepherd and Son (Scotland) Ltd.  The chanter choice of all Lothian and Borders Branch Champions in 2006.
