  • Balmerino
  • Balmullo
  • Greyfriars, St Andrews
  • Dunbog
  • Newburgh
  • Castlehill, Cupar
  • Kirkton of Largo

  • Lundin Mill
  • Ladybank
  • Pitlessie
  • Kettle, Kingskettle
  • St Columba’s, Cupar
  • Freuchie

Castlehill Primary School, in Cupar, emerged victorious on the day and the winning team was presented with an engraved trophy.

The event was organised by Leuchars Primary teachers Tony Russell and Matthew Bowen.
