There were over 400 calves at the event and 100 in the Jersey section so the competition was tough. The club is the first club to have a team representing them in the Jersey section but undoubtedly we have started something that others will follow. The team was very successful and came third in the coloured breeds stand competition, and all individuals did extremely well in both the handling and the calf classes. With a lot of help and support from the club members the weekend was a great success.
