There will be one singing competition to include boys and girls, in English or Irish.
Entries are to be made as normal, on the Fleadh entry form, to your branch secretary who in turn will forward to the County Secretary.
Children may not compete in both U10 and U12 competitions apart from duet, trio, groups, bands, céilí and set dancing at U12.
