Date	Winner	Conductor
5th Jun 2020	No Contest. CANCELLED DUE TO CORONA VIRUS OUTBREAK Statement from Chairman, Bob Rogers, on behalf of the Saddleworth Area Contests: “Following much soul searching and debate between the 11 Saddleworth and Oldham Whit Friday Contests, we have reluctantly decided that we must follow Government guidelines, and guidance from Brass Bands England, and not hold the contest in 2020. We know that this is one of the highlights of the calendar not only for local people, but also for Brass Bands nationally and internationally. We look forward to running a fantastic event on 28th May, 2021, and hope that everyone keeps safe throughout these unprecedented times.”

Contest Group Notes

Friezland contest does not count for the open and local area prizes because it is restricted to 3rd section, 4th section and youth bands.

According to the British Bandsman 20/06/1992, - "The new Saddleworth area champion's award (highest marks from six contests) was won by Williams Fairey Engineering followed by Grimethorpe and Hammonds. Of the 19 contests, a few managed to play at 10, although Hammonds managed to squeeze in 12 contests. A total of 105 bands played at the nine contests in the Saddleworth area. The Tameside Championship had not been decided as we went to press". So 1992 is the 1st year of the overall Saddleworth Champion. 19 contests obviously refers to Tameside and Saddleworth/Oldham.
