As you may have noticed, 2022 Predictions are now live!

Head over to https://www.txbands.com/predict to make your predictions for most September events. If there are any contests you'd like added, you can suggest an event as well. 

I have noticed a number of non-Texas contests submitted. We're good to include these but I would love the community's input on this. Please either post here or vote in the poll.

I would say only include our of state contests if there are Texas bands competing but would also be ok with including any contest featured by hornrank (BOA and major local contests).  That means some random contest in Idaho or California or Massachusetts would probably not be all that interesting to make predictions for, but BOA Grand Nats would!

I like this approach. The only two pending September events were for BOA and I approved those (since schools add/drop all the time, I usually only go out a few weeks in advance)

I had this issue last year, and it seems like it followed me into this year's predictions. I am unable to submit predictions, as I have already submitted twice now for BOA Clarksville and it won't accept them.

Also South Spencer dropped that contest, so I don't know if there is an option to go in and take them out.

Same here. I am unable to submit predictions and have tried twice now. I filled out to suggest US Bands AT&T Stadium Classic a couple weeks ago but haven't received updates.

This is intentional, as events are added on a rolling basis about 2 weeks out to ensure we have accurate rosters before people start predicting.

Whoever submitted Galena Park ISD Marching Festival, I will have to sadly not approve it, because that contest is a prelim's only style. They only do 1 round and then top 3 in each classification.

Whoever submitted the HEB contest did it too early cause there are quite a few changes.

Drop: Aledo, Creekview

Add: Haltom

I think in general people need to stop submitting contests for predictions until an official schedule comes out or it is the week of the contest.

And another note, there are 2 Plano East Marching Invitationals. The second one without the Plano Jr. Highs is the correct one for predictions I believe.

The Wylie Marching Invitation also needs to be fixed. Here are the changes 

Drop: Wylie East,Independence, Lakeview Centennial, Rockwall-Heath and Richardson. 
 

Add: Grand Prairie and Flowermound

I have fixed both issues. Now, with the issue with the 2 Plano East contests, the one without the Plano schools, I can not find the right name for it. I looked at several band calendars and almost all of them said Plano East Marching Invitational, even though it is not. Not sure.

I believe the Plano East Contest you have listed without the Plano Schools is the Little Elm contest that happened this past weekend.

If you are referring to the Little Elm Classic on the Lake Contest, we already had that in the predictions.

Mckinney Marching Invitational needs to be updated.

  • Highland Park will not be attending (BOA Bedford)
  • Wylie East, Frisco(?) Heritage, and Granbury will be attending (source)

This ruins most of our predictions, so it would be cool if we can redo them.

The JV contest for the Plano schools is held on the same day, just earlier in the morning. No error is here!
