YFCU would like to congratulate all members for taking part in the Dairy Stock Judging Competition 2021. Congratulations to everyone who took part and all those who got through to the final! We would like to thank the members for taking on the challenge to stay connected and adapting to virtual events which would normally be held physically.
The online Dairy Stock Judging was similar to the normal competition with members judging two rings and one assessment animal. This is the second dairy stock judging competition to be held virtually in ninety years of the Association. YFCU look forward to easing of COVID-19 restrictions and seeing events and competitions being held in person again.
YFCU would like to show appreciation to Nicholas McCann, Thoburn McCaughey, Andy Cowan, Geoffrey Patton & Paul Dunn for their support and adapting to our virtual format for Dairy Stock Judging.
