Over the past few years MPAUK, in
conjunction with WGUK, has supported the formation of a
competitive Indoor Percussion circuit and in 2010 went into
partnership with Indoor Percussion Europe to help further promote
this relatively new activity in the UK.
The number of UK units taking part has been around 3 to 5 each
year and so this has not really been big enough for contests to be
held independently of an existing Winterguard show however even
when an IP contest has been scheduled the take up has been, to say
the least, disappointing with units not being able to commit until
mid to late March which has normally just meant them formally
competing in a Finals contest only!
MPAUK is now asking all organisation/units considering taking part
within the UK Indoor Percussion circuit in 2011 to make contact as
soon as possible, with no obligation, so that a decision can be
made as to how best move forward over the next 6 to 8 months.
Please email ip@mpauk.org.uk
just advising basic details of your organisation, any plans you
have (or are considering having) and maybe your thoughts on how an
IP circuit should be run in the UK.
MPAUK and WGUK is committed to continuing to offer support to this
exciting part of our activity but we need to know what you
want!!!!
