The Rotary Club of CAM ran our annual Young Musician competition on Wednesday 26 November 2025 at St Ambrose High School, Coatbridge. In spite of a lowish number of contestants, it was a very enjoyable and successful evening, with bright young stars performing to a high standard. Our adjudicators Scott McQuorcodale and Hope Sim had a hard time deciding on the winner in each category, and the overall winner and runner-up.
Past President Colin Ooi welcomed all guests, and compered the event. Acting President John Barbour presented the trophies to the winners. The judges were very complimentary to all the participants, and quite rightly so, given the high standards of musical performance. There was a performance from Nathan Donnelly, last year's YM winner.
Head teacher Mrs Kearney thanked everyone who had worked tirelessly to make this a successful event. Hon. Rotarian George Lindsay gave the final vote of thanks.
For the record the overall winner is Niamh Logan (vocalist) and the runner-up is Harry Marshall (drumkit), both from St Ambrose High School. So the running trophy goes back to St Ambrose High School for another year!
