About
SDCA provides venues for smaller drum corps to perform and potentially compete. The association welcomes concert and parade-only corps, as well as active members of Drum Corps International or Drum Corps Associates. Membership is open, meaning any group that performs at a hosted event is considered a member of the association. Drum lines, color guards and marching bands are not excluded.[2]
Sanctioned events are often hosted in conjunction with community events, such as parades and festivals.[3] Emphasis is placed on audience engagement and entertainment. Scoring, if available, features spectator input.
Like DCI and other associations, SDCA pays appearance fees to participating groups.[2]
