Welcome

Commenting on the appointment of adjudicators, Peggy Tomlinson, Yorkshire Regional Secretary told 4BR: "We will be pleased to welcome all the adjudicators to St. George’s Hall next March. Most are familiar faces with the exception of Mark Wilkinson and Rob Wiffin who will be in the box for us for the first time.

The test piece selection seems to have been received very well by the bands and the adjudicators are looking forward to the challenge, so I feel confident we may look forward to a good weekend at Yorkshire 2013."
