Don't know where you're currently playing, however, you may or may not be
aware of the Weston Silver Band in Toronto.  The Euphonium player Ron
Williams is very good, he won the North American Championship a few years
ago and also some Welsh championships many years ago. 

I played both Euph. and Trombone for Weston for a number of years as well
as conducted them for two.  When I was your age I applied to the British
military as a Euph.  player.

Can tell you more about my experiences further if you would like to chat.
