If you think you have the skill sets to go with your banding passion and want to be part of the hugely successful National Youth Championships of Great Britain — why not put yourself forward to be an adjudicator on the day.

Youth Champions
  The championships are all about inclusion as well as excellence

Brass Bands England is repeating its successful initiative in inviting applicants to put themselves forward to fill the six adjudication positions at the 2025 National Youth Brass Band Championships of Great Britain.
