BDCF 1987
Extract from Federation Championships Programme Introduction:

"There is no purpose dwelling on how and why the Federation came into being. It is sufficient to say there was a desire among Corps to bring a sense of enjoyment back into the activity.

The number of young people taking part in Drum Corps has fallen in the last five years. One of the main reasons for this decline must be the intensity of competition. The activity has, perhaps, lost sight of it's prime aim which is to develop well balanced young people with a sense of discipline and direction. We want to bring back the element of fun into Drum Corps."
