Welcome to the
Massachusetts Judges Association

The Mission of the MJA shall be to promote the ongoing education and development of qualified adjudicators for the Marching Arts as well as the development and betterment of competing marching and musical units, their instructors and their members.

Our Goals

• As a service association, MJA will communicate with organizations that govern the drum corps, band and winter color guard and percussion activities in order to educate MJA judges in the proper philosophies and techniques used in those various activities.
• MJA makes a continual commitment to education through clinics and the discussion of appropriate information to all of its members.
• MJA also encourages its membership to assume leadership roles in the training and education of all pageantry arts activities.
