  • To enhance the performance and interaction of Marching Show Bands at a world wide level.
  • To encourage the development of "World Class Band Events" held in conjunction with "Internationally" recognized events throughout the world.
  • To sanction "World Class Events" which will allow Marching Show Bands from anywhere in the world to be performance rated on their individual form and style.
  • To establish the required standards for the judgment and performance rating of Marching Show Bands at such sanctioned events.
  • To approve standards of operations used at sanctioned events.
  • To consult with, and be a resource for such sanctioned events.
