YSMP Ohio State Marching Band Clinic

Friday–Sunday, July 11–13, 2025


Location: Steinbrenner Band Center, Ohio Stadium


NOTE: We have reached capacity for snare drum and are not accepting any additional musicians for that instrument.


The Marching Band Clinic is an opportunity for high school marching band students to improve their musicianship and marching skills as they contemplate a potential audition for the Ohio State Marching Band. Under the direction of marching band staff and student leaders, participants learn the music and marching fundamentals used by the Ohio State Marching Band in an encouraging, fun and interactive environment.


While the Marching Band Clinic is an introduction to Ohio State traditions and our marching style, students MUST have experience playing their selected instrument(s) to participate.


For students entering grades 10–12 in the 2025–2026 school year, and 2025 high school graduates. Students must have completed at least one year of marching band and must have experience playing a brass or percussion instrument.


Registration DEADLINE: Monday, June 16
