Changes to the BYBA Associate Class scope

Publish Date: 10 Feb 2015 - 3242 views

For 2015, BYBA’s Associate Class scope is changing to allow Associate Bands to either be judged off the Premier or Championship sheets.

This change will allow more flexibility for those bands outside of the current age rules to be judged alongside bands of similar performance levels, rather than having to all be judged off the current Premier Class sheets. "Whilst the scores will still be separated out, it allows comparison across the current class structure", BYBA states on their website.

BYBA has added the shows entries into 2015 contests on their website. So far, fifteen corps and bands have registered for shows on 14th June (North), 21st June (Midlands), 5th July (South), 11th/12th July (Midlands), 13th September (M1 Corridor) and 20th September (Midlands).
