Show Sanctioning Rules
2013 - 2014 Beef Shows desiring to be sanctioned by the
Junior Nebraska Cattlemen (JNC) must abide by the following guidelines:
| • | List of Rules sent to every show manager | |
| • | Only one show per day within 120 miles will be sanctioned. | |
| • | Breed classes must be offered for
steers and breeding heifers regardless of the number entered in a breed
division. Breeding heifer classes will be broken according to age
(ask for breakdown of ages if this is unfamiliar). Sanctioned shows must offer: There will be a top three breeding heifers and market animals picked on small shows, top five breeding heifers and market animals on medium size shows, and top seven breeding heifers and market animals on large shows. Market heifers are treated as a breed of steers. (The placing for the top awards will be selected only from the champions and reserve breed champions.) All breeds will have there own representation in the final championship drive. Simmental: 1/2 - 3/4's are percentages, above 3/4's are purebreds. Chiangus: Registered Chiangus Chianina: Any combination registered within the Chianina Association. Maine Anjou: ¼- up to 3/4 is a Maintainer, ¾ and higher is a purebred Gelbvieh: Balancer 3/8-up to 3/4, ¾ - and higher is a purebred Other breeds that have separate qualifications, please check with the JNC before exhibiting and planning on points. A Grand and Reserve Champion plus a 3rd on a small, 3rd, 4th and 5th on a medium, and 3rd through 7th on a large must be selected from the breed division champions and reserves. All the breed champions and reserve breed champions must show back for overall or no points will be awarded. |
|
| • | Requests for Sanctioning, an official show flyer
and a $100 check for small and medium shows and $200 for 150 head and
larger shows. (Show size will be determined by last year's numbers. If this is the first year, then a $100 fee will be used until a number is established.)
|
|
| • | Sanctioned Shows are required to check
registration papers on both breed steers and heifers, and it is suggested tattoos be checked on all breeding
heifers at check-in to verify the animals are correctly entered.
Otherwise they must show in the Commercial Class. |
|
| • | Market Heifers will show in one
division. No separate breed classes will be allowed. They will
be shown the same as another breed of steers. |
|
| • | Official results must be sent to the
Junior Nebraska Cattlemen president within 7 days of the show in order to
receive the 50% refund of the sanctioning fee. Results may be given to a
JNC advisor at the end of the show or emailed to [email protected]. |
|
| • | State breed field days will not be sanctioned. |
|
| • | Breeding Heifers must be born between
Sept. 1, 2012 through December 31, 2013. |
|
| • | Steers and Market Heifers must be born in 2013. |
|
| • | A “three strike rule” will be enforced. This means that if an animal gets away from the exhibitor three times during the class, the animal will be disqualified from the class and will obtain zero points. |
