Contest Forms
Again, this year scan sheets will be used to score this contest. These pdf copies of the form may be read using the latest version of Adobe Acrobat 6.0. Although the ovals may show up as "bolded D shapes" on the electronic copy, the actual form used has nicely drawn ovals associated with each possible selection.
Folding, crumpling, or tearing the scan sheets, or using ink to complete the scan sheets may result in inaccurate scores or no score being recorded.
- A Junior Division contestant must be either a freshman or sophomore in high school and a member of a junior division team. A junior division contestant cannot be a junior or senior in high school.
- A junior division team will consist of 4 team members. The high team members’ scores will count. The low score of the fourth team member will not be counted. He/she is eligible for individual awards. If only 3 team members are available to judge, then the total of these three members’ scores will make up the team score, and no scores are dropped.
- A junior division team may have judged in the junior division of previous state contests and is eligible to compete a second year as long as they are not a member of the state winning junior division team and/or competed in the national livestock selection CDE. This means all members on the team, including the alternate (low score), on a 4-member team.
- This is a district qualifying event. Teams that place within the Top 50% of their district within each division may compete in the state competition. Each team is made up of 4 individuals, and 2 alternates. Thus, no more than six potential contestants may be pre-registered for the contest. All teams competing in the Junior/Senior Livestock Selection Contests must be pre-registered by March 20th. Teams may substitute PRE-REGISTERED alternates for PRE-REGISTERED team members the morning of the contest. NO OTHER SUBSTITUTIONS WILL BE ALLOWED! Unless substituted for a pre-registered team member, alternates will NOT judge.
