The Pride of Malverne’s marching band competes primarily in the New York State Field Band Conference. The New York State Field Band Conference, Inc. (NYSFBC) was formed on Feb. 6, 1972 for the purpose of regulating and scheduling field band events in New York State, and for the enhancement of school field band competitions. It is the aim of the NYSFBC to encourage participation in such events, and the philosophy of the NYSFBC to encourage and provide the most positive experience possible for all participants. Read more about the NYSFBC.
In addition, we seek to compete more in the USBands circuit. USBands operates under the banner of the Youth Education in the Arts (YEA!). Since its first event in 1988 as The Cadets Marching Band Collective, and later the US Scholastic Band Association, they have supported the development of scholastic performing ensembles through exceptional service, adjudication and venues. Beginning with one event in New Jersey, USBands has expanded to include thousands of bands in 150+ events nationwide. Their guiding principle is to provide ensembles, regardless of style, size and experience, an opportunity to be successful, allowing students to benefit from their involvement with scholastic music.
