Second Placed Debut
Last weekends North of England Regionals at the newly refurbished Dolphin Centre in Darlington saw Lockwood placed second in their debut contest in the 1st Section. This means a fifth consecutive invitation to the National Brass Band Championships in September.
Eric Ball's Sinfonietta – The Wayfarer was the First Section test piece this year, which saw Felling walk away as Champions for the second year in a row.
As well as finishing second, Lockwood were also awarded the prize for best percussion.
