TRISTATE JUDGES ASSOCIATION

The Tri State Judges Association is a group of dedicated professionals committed to helping students in the pageantry arts achieve their very best. TSJA personnel come from a variety of backgrounds but all have one thing in common—a passion for the activity and an unwavering belief that the work ethic and teamwork built through participation in guard, drum line, and other musical activities are qualities that last a lifetime.

The association’s main purpose is to support the staffs, students, and other stakeholders of the Tri State Circuit. We work to foster a collegial environment at local contests where all participants will learn and grow through their involvement in the activity. We believe that all groups, regardless of competitive class or experience level, are equally valued and bring something wonderful and special to each show.

TSJA members have a wealth of experience in the pageantry arts and are eager to share what they have learned with others. In addition to serving the TSC, our judges work literally coast to coast each season. For the past several years, we have sent judges to over a dozen different local circuits each year, including adjudicating at least seven different circuit championship events each season. TSJA personnel are additionally involved as judges for Winter Guard International, Drum Corps International, and Bands of America.

It has been an absolute joy to see such tremendous growth and maturity from the TSC groups over the years. We applaud your efforts and hope to continue to serve you as you produce more incredible shows. We are excited about the upcoming season and wish all groups the very best as they prepare for another great year of fantastic performances.
