1. Competition classes are decided by size of group. The smaller classes
are "easier".
2. You CAN hear the woodwinds and many directors limit them in favor of
brass.
3. Besides, logistics of 200+ on the field can get really hairy...
There's a quote I hear often "They're too big to be good."

There's lots of reasons for smaller bands, these are a few.
