How Can My Band or Indoor Unit Join TOB/TIA?
Tournament of Bands and Tournament Indoor Association provide a competitive arena for marching bands, indoor guards, twirlers, percussion and dance teams, as well as for jazz bands, choral groups and other related units.
TOB/TIA contests are held annually in 9 states throughout the mid-Atlantic region where 13 regions are created geographically for local contests. West-central Pennsylvania is designated as the Allegheny Mountain Region. Originally, the TOB geography was divided into chapters and this area has been traditionally referred to as Chapter XI.
From September through October, marching bands will have the opportunity to perform in contests throughout the chapters.
The number of musicians (or auxiliary, whichever is highest) is used to determine the group size. Bands can elect to compete in the Open Class (traditional TOB scoring), A Class (new bands or staffs), or Festival Class (Ratings only).
Indoor ensembles perform from January through early May. Please view www.njatob.org for guidelines and classifications of color guard, twirlers, dance teams and percussion ensembles.
An annual membership fee of $100 entitles ALL of your school or organization units to participate without additional costs for the year! A one-time fee for performance bond is allocated to each unit.
If you have any questions or are interested in obtaining more information about joining TOB/TIA, please contact this website.
