keeping tongue and fingers in sync

Hello, I'm delurking to post this query. I've started playing clarinet in my local community band after a 10 or so years hiatus, and am slowly regaining some skill. However, we play a lot of fast paced pieces, and one of my biggest frustrations is keeping my tonguing and changes of the notes in sync. I tend to have a fraction of an "inbetween note" as I go from note to note. It is really obvious when I practice scales. I'm sure it takes time to build up to speed, but I certainly can't ask the band to slow down for me! I'd like to know if there are any good exercises that someone might recommend to address this problem.
