The Drogheda Brass Band came second in this year's National Championships which took place in University Limerick on the 6th of April. Despite producing two strong performances, we were beaten into second place by Downshire Brass Band who played superbly to win the competition.

The defeat ends our amazing run of six consecutive National Championship victories. While this is disappointing we can look to the future with optimism thanks to the performances of our younger members, many of whom made their competitive debut with the band at this contest. 

Congratulations to the IABCB who once again organised a fantastic event in the brilliant UCH.
