The Band Roster management forms are now open. Band managers have been provided with user ids, and the online forms are consistent with prior seasons.
All MWPBA member bands must update and submit their current competition roster no later than March 31. (Bands first registering after March 31 are exempted.) Bands submitting their initial roster after March 31 will be assessed a $100 administration fee. Further amendments are permitted throughout the season according to stated rules.
Prior band rosters do not automatically carry over (although individual roster entries have been preserved where possible).
If you have forgotten your band manager user id, you can recover it by providing the registered email address at the login prompt. Same with password recovery. If you are having trouble, you can send email to Stuart at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
