A HISTORY OF
THE OHIO MUSIC
EDUCATION ASSOCIATION
STATE MARCHING BAND FINALS
Band competition has been a part of the school music scene in Ohio since the early part of this century. The
forerunners of the OMEA, the Ohio High School Band
Association, and the Ohio School Band and Orchestra Association were all formed, at least in part, to foster competition in the state. Following the success of the Fostoria,
Ohio Boys Band in winning the first national band contest
in 1923 held in Chicago, the Fostoria director, John W.
Wainwright, formed the Ohio High School Band Association. Ohio’s first contest was held in 1924 in Fostoria with
eight bands in attendance. Prize money was supplied by
the music industry including Barnhouse Publishers and
Conn Instrument Company. There were four adjudicators
in these early contests. By 1928 three adjudicators commented on the groups’ intonation, instrumentation, tone
and harmonic balance, tone quality, precision and interpretation, and a fourth judged the band in sight-reading.
In 1932 the newly formed Ohio Music Education Association stated among its goals “the promotion of state-wide
contests in vocal and instrumental music.” Furthermore,
when OMEA affiliated with MENC (Music Educators
National Conference) in 1934 the two groups’ statement
concerning contests mentioned that the purpose of these
contests is to promote education through music.
The Contest Committee of OMEA was formed in 1934
for the purpose of overseeing contest operations in Ohio.
The committee recommended in 1935 that these contests
deviate from the practice of assigning ratings and points
for the bands’ performances and begin to use a “ratings
only” method of adjudication. In 1936 the committee recommended that the State adopt a “five rating plan.” The
former six rating plan included the levels “superior, excellent, very good, good, fair, and poor.” Each of these levels
was assigned points with a superior worth 10, excellent 7,
very good 4, good 2, fair 1, and poor 0. The new system deleted the “very good” category, as well as doing away with
the point system. The sight reading rating could lower the
overall rating if it was more than one rating lower than the
final rating of the three combined judges.
Competitions were suspended in the state during
World War II and ran into rough times in the 1950s when
school administrator associations and the North Central
Association recommended that other than athletic contests, inter-scholastic events should be curtailed. This recommendation was rescinded in 1951, leaving such determination up to the individual school systems.
In 1951 Ohio began to use the district/state levels of
adjudication still in use today. Bands that received a “I” or
“superior” rating in the district contest then advanced into
the state level several weeks later in the spring. The five
rating plan was refined so that there was a well-defined
standard assigned to each rating. This statement of standards still accompanies the five rating plan today.
Beginning in the 1950s and up until 1980, there were
as many as ten different marching band competitions held
at various schools each fall throughout the state. Several of the most noted were held at Fairborn, Roger Bacon,
Marietta, West Jefferson, Zanesville, Wadsworth and Marlington High Schools. The Marching Bands of America
contest movement was just beginning to be a force in the
state by the late 1970s. Several Ohio bands that were fairly
close to neighboring states participated in contests in such
circuits as the Pennsylvania Federation of Contest Judges
and the Mid-West Judges’ Circuit. Each of these contests
used similar, yet distinctive rules and regulations and announced rankings of the groups participating. Classifications of groups were generally determined by band size
and prizes were awarded to outstanding auxiliary units
and field commanders/drum majors.
In this pre-1980 time period there became a growing
increase in the influence and sponsorships of these contests by commercial interests such as music companies
and corporations (MBA Grand Nationals was sponsored
by a national food chain). Nearby states were holding state
championships. OMEA began to take an interest in these
contests in the mid 1970s and editorials began to mention
the problem of director and student burnout associated
with contest involvement. There was concern in the ranks
of OMEA that commercial interests would soon take control of marching band competitions in Ohio. Some feel
that this pushed OMEA into the marching band competition area as much as anything. It is interesting to note that
similar concerns were expressed by MENC in the 1920’s
when the Conn Company sponsored the National Band

Contests. This most likely was one of the reasons MENC
took over sponsorship of these contests in 1924.
In 1979–80 the OMEA formed an ad hoc committee to
study various proposals for the formation of a state marching band finals and sanctioned contests. Members of this
committee included Steve Berry, Dick Cool, Gary Tirey,
Jim Swearingen, Tim Swinehart, Max Treier, and was cochaired by Jack Evans, former director of The Ohio State
University Marching Band and Terren Frenz.
ing, contest management, and the philosophy of competing
in marching band contests in Ohio. In the development of
this handbook, several “rules congresses” were attended
by representatives from each of the OMEA districts in the
state. Richard Rhodes, Larry Kelley, William Guegold, William Wittman, Randall Clark, Michael Gallehue, Patricia
Meeks, John Purdy, David Handshue, and Brian Stevens
have followed Steve Berry as Marching Band Affairs Chairs.
In February of 1982 at the OMEA State Professional
Conference held in Cincinnati, there began a series of “adjudicator training sessions” to help clarify judging practices
and to increase the number of qualified judges available to
judge the OMEA system. OMEA contests were required to
hire judges from the OMEA-approved list as compiled by
the Marching Band Affairs Chair. To become listed in the
approved list, prospective judges were required to attend
these seminars and make formal application to the Marching Band Affairs Chair. Adjudication background, personal
contest ratings, contest observation, and letters of reference
were part of the application and certification process. The
prototype 1982 training session format was later expanded and additional sessions were held at Otterbein College
and at The Ohio State University. The current scope of these
sessions has been expanded to include competing directors
and contest chairpersons, as well as adjudicators.
With a greater emphasis placed on the “total” marching
band program, revisions in Auxiliary, Field Commander,
General Effect, and Music adjudications were implemented
in 1996, rewarding those bands showing a trend towards a
“holistic” musical and visual program. These changes place
more of a premium on the total visual enhancement of the
marching band. Today, the “over-all” band rating will be
announced, to emphasize the importance of the total band’s
performance, rather than each separate entity.
In 2004, a critique system was added to the local event
process to allow directors to speak with the adjudicators
following their performance to gain a better understanding
how to improve their bands, and in 2006, visual captions
were updated from Marching and Maneuvering Execution
and General Effect to Visual Performance and Visual Effect
to better reflect current practices in marching band visual
design.
The Ohio Music Education Association format of adjudicated marching band events has become a solid foundation for 60–65 local adjudicated events each year. The
OMEA State Marching Band Finals continues to improve
as bands reach higher levels of achievement and directors
gain greater knowledge and experience in this area. An ongoing effort is always taking place to enhance an already
strong program brought about by people with a vision to
improve music education.

The following goals statements came from this committee:
1. To provide at the state level, for those interested in
marching band competitions, a competitive event
controlled by OMEA. Rules and regulations for
this event would follow as closely as possible the
rules and regulations for other OMEA Competitive Festivals.
2. To encourage the co-existence of the many independent (invitational, etc.) marching band
contests and festivals now operating in Ohio by
making it possible for these contests to serve as
qualifying contests for the OMEA State Competition. Some flexibility in the operation of qualifying contests is included to meet local traditions
and conditions.
3. To bring about, in Marching Band Competitions
in the State of Ohio, standardization of rules, procedures, and adjudication through the required
guidelines for qualifying contests including the
use of OMEA adjudication forms and scoring
systems. The intent is to provide competition in
which recognition is given for the quality of performance regardless of the type of band or style of
marching.
After several revisions and much discussion, the
Ohio Music Education Association state board decided
at its spring meeting in 1980 to sanction marching band
contests that followed the OMEA designated format and
gave permission to hold the first State Finals on November 1, 1980. The OMEA Marching Band Guidelines were
published in the Triad and were available from Steve Berry. Mr. Berry served for five years as the first “Marching
Band Affairs Chair” on the OMEA Competitions Committee. Bands were eligible to participate in the State Finals if
they received a “I” or “superior” rating at one of the sixteen
OMEA-sanctioned contests using the OMEA rules and
regulations. Thirty-six bands qualified the first year. The
number of qualifying contests grew to thirty in 1981 with
sixty-four attending the State Finals.
In subsequent years the complexity of the guidelines
grew from a two-page outline into a forty five page handbook of rules and regulations that includes a comprehensive section dealing with caption area adjudication train-

WHAT ARE THE JUDGES LOOKING FOR?
THE OHIO FIVE-RATING PLAN
If this is your first marching band adjudicated event, or if you are new to the world of marching bands, you may
be wondering how the judges come to their conclusion in rating the performing bands! Perhaps the following
will help you to understand the process of judging a band show.
This marching band event is held under the authority of the Ohio Music Education Association, Terry Herschman President, and JD Latorre Adjudicated Events Chair. In direct charge of this event are Jay Wardeska,
State Finals Chair and OMEA Marching Band Affairs Chair, and Stephanie Smith, State Finals Co-Chair and
OMEA Marching Band Adjudications Chair.
OMEA began the use of a criteria reference system in the 2001 season. This criteria was established over two
years of research and study, and implemented for the fall 2001 season. Judges were extensively trained in the
summer at continuing education sessions. In order to progress from one rating to the next rating, each band
must meet a certain set of criteria. This is listed on each judging sheet as well as on the OMEA web site at www.
omea-ohio.org.
There are nine judges involved in the evaluation of the bands. Of these, two evaluate the “musical performance”,
two the “general effect” of the show, two judge the “visual program”, one field judge is evaluating the “percussion” section, and two judges concentrate on all auxiliary units of the band. The Overall Final Rating will be
determined by the addition of “ratings” from the music, general effect, visual, and percussion judges.
Music judges: evaluate the technical accuracy of the performance. They will concern themselves with how well
the wind and percussion sections play together and the repertoire of the music being performed. The score of
the percussion judge will be averaged with the two music judges to determine the overall music score.
General effect judges: evaluate the musical and visual presentation of all performers, how effective their performance is in the area of creativity and imagination, and how well the music and marching drill coordinate for a
unified production.
Visual Performance: will watch the marching performance, evaluate the accuracy of marching definition, and
evaluate the construction complexity of the patterns and designs with respect to the number of individuals utilized.
Visual Effect: will determine how well the drill (marching) program interprets the music as well as the coordination of all the visual aspects of the show.
All judges will use SD recorders plus official OMEA marching band adjudication rating sheets. Each band is
scheduled in a fifteen minute time block, starting with an announcement from the announcer that the band may
begin it’s pre-placement and/or warm up. A second announcement that the band may begin their performance
will follow. “Show time” starts with the first step or the first note following the second announcement. The show
must be a minimum of seven minutes and a maximum of eleven minutes.
Bands are entered into classifications based on the school enrollment grades 10-12, minus any vocational students who attend school “off campus”. Bands may enter a classification higher but not lower than their school
enrollment will allow.

The Ohio Music Education Association sanctions marching band festivals in the State of Ohio in hopes of providing a broad-based opportunity for marching units of the state’s schools to participate in an educational setting. It is hoped that the adjudicated festival situation would be one in which viable comments and suggestions
are offered in a positive, constructive manner to each group and a fair evaluation of the group’s performance is
reflected within the Ohio Five Rating Plan as outlined below. It is intended that this system provide the fairest,
most consistent experience possible for the marching bands in the State of Ohio.
Ohio bands receiving a final rating of “I” (Superior) in any of the 62 OMEA-sanctioned marching band adjudicated events held this fall are eligible to participate in today’s State Marching Band Finals.
These bands are not competing against one another, but rather against a standard, as determined by the Ohio
Five Rating Plan. Each band brings to these State Finals it’s own musical and marching “style” identity, therefore the ranking of these bands would be inappropriate for this educational arena. Direct comparisons of this
musical and visual art form are discouraged, and for these reasons, the Ohio Music Education Association prefers to “rate” the bands according to a standard, rather than ranking them.
The bands here today are grouped according to classes as determined by their school enrollment in grades
10–12, excluding vocational students attending a separate school.
THE OHIO FIVE-RATING PLAN
l
(Superior)
An outstanding performance with very few technical errors and exemplifying
a truly musical expression. This should be reserved for the truly outstanding
performance.
ll
(Excellent)
An unusual performance in many respects, but not worthy of the highest rating
due to minor defects in performance, ineffective interpretation, or improper
instrumentation.
lll
(Good)
An acceptable performance, but not outstanding. Showing marked promise,
but lacking in one or more essential qualities.
lV
(Fair)
A poor performance showing many technical errors, poor musical conception,
lack of interpretation, incomplete instrumentation, or lacking in any of the other
essential qualities.
V
(Poor)
A very poor performance indicating deficiencies in most of the essential factors
and indicating that much careful attention should be given to fundamentals
of good performance. This rating should be used sparingly and only when it is
possible to cite major faults.
