Pipe Major George D. Buchanan Memorial Trophy
The P/M George D. Buchanan Memorial Trophy is awarded to the winner of the Senior category. This trophy was donated by Donald Buchanan in memory of his late father, who was a leading member of the Branch in its early days, and a proponent of piobaireachd and its importance for the musical development of pipers.
