Lochgelly High School Pipe Band has been crowned European champions.
The band won the title in the 'Novice Juvenile A' category in Perth, beating 11 others to the top spot.
Both piping judges and the ensemble judge unanimously placed them first.
The victory marks their second major championship win of the season, following their success at the UK Championships in Edinburgh.
They also secured third place at the Scottish Championships in Dumbarton in July.
The school's junior band also enjoyed success, taking sixth prize in a field of 21 bands in grade 'Novice Juvenile B'.
The junior band was previously crowned UK champions earlier in the year and maintained their form with another sixth-place finish at the Scottish Championships.
The Perth contest, held just a week before the World Championships in Glasgow, attracted various overseas bands, adding an international aspect to the competition.
Following their triumph on Saturday, the band paraded at Lochgelly Gala on Sunday, proudly announced into the arena as European champions.
Last year, the group was named Novice Juvenile Band World Champions at the World Pipe Band Championships but was later stripped of the title due to an "administrative and inputting error."
The mistake resulted in them being dropped to 10th place.
The error was attributed to human error and a failure to comply with procedures in verifying results-based data and the rules of the competition.
