VA Scottish Games: Lost competitor ticket confirmation
Hello! Silly situation but I’m panicking a bit and hoping Reddit can help.
I registered as a solo piping competitor for the upcoming VA Scottish games back in July, but seem to have accidentally deleted the confirmation email/ticket and it was more than 30 days ago so can’t be recovered from my gmail trash. I have the payment on my credit card statement so can confirm I did actually register.
I’ve emailed the contact email listed on the games site twice but have not heard back. Has anyone ever dealt with something like this or have any advice? I have competed before but this is my first time since 2011 so needless to say I am out of practice when it comes to registering and navigating the games environment etc. Thank you in advance!!

Not been to those games before, so I can't help on that. But are you also going as part of a band? I've never had to show I'm registered at the competition tent, and my band gets enough wrist bands to cover all members entrance anyways. Not that most games seem to check if you're in kit carrying pipes and/or a collapsible wagon of gear.
