BYBA crowns national champions
Yesterday saw fifteen bands and corps take part in one of the most exciting and closest fought British Youth Band Association National Championships in recent years. The titles went to East Coast Elite (Premier Class), Lanesfield BB/GB (Championship Class), Dynamic Vibe (Associate Class) and Cadence Juniors (Cadet Class).
In the Premier Class East Coast Elite took the title for the third year in succession moving from third place to first (80.75), beating league champions Beeches PE (80.67) and Revolution Show Corps (79.57), the latter by just 0.08 points. Just like in the Premier Class, the band ranked third coming into Finals Lanesfield BB/GB took the gold medal, ahead of Ibstock Scouts in second and league champions Stafford Brigades in third.
In the Cadet Class, Cadence Juniors took top honours over Liberty Juniors, while Associate Class went to Dynamic Vibe Ensemble. Recap sheets and a full review will follow soon on the BYBA website.
