The entry forms have been sent out ahead of the final contest of the 2014 Welsh League season.

Entry forms have been sent out by the South East Wales Brass Band Association to bands on its mailing list for its Welsh League contest which will be held at Merthyr Tydfil Leisure Centre on Saturday 22nd November.

Own choice

The own choice contest will round off what has been an exciting 2014 Welsh League Championship season, and following the successful event held in Merthyr earlier this year it is hoped it will once again attract a good entry of bands, whilst the excellent local facilities offer plenty of opportunity to enjoy some non musical attractions too.

Closing date

The closing date for entries is Saturday 18th October, with receipt of entry given by e-mail unless a stamped and addressed envelope is enclosed with the entry.

The contest is organised in accordance with the joint SEWBBA/WWBBA contesting rules.
