The 2013 Llandaff Branch Striking Competition was held at Coity on Saturday 11th May 2013.

A lovely (if slightly windy) afternoon saw six bands enter the Call-Chamge Competition for the Dennis Perry Trophy and four bands enter the Method-Ringing competition for the Gwyn Lewis Trophy.

The Judges were Hilary Rose and Jill Harris from Sketty (Swansea). After a fine "Ringers' Tea" they adjudged the competitions as follows:

2nd Llandaff 11 ) Joint

Coity, Cadoxton, Penarth and Llandaff (after some discussion between "The Two Bobs" - which is 10p in modern money) will go forward to represent the Branch in the Inter-Branch competitions at the end of June.
