Edition 4 - 2023 - Staffordshire

Like all Clubs the last few months have been very busy for Staffordshire Young Breeders. From a very small club at the Beginning of the Summer to an excellent turnout of 19 Handlers at The Calf Show. Their success at the Stock judging and Field to Foto in August was outstanding for such a small team. A big well done the team of 5, Lizzie, Peter, Sophie, Dan and Joe, who travelled to Taunton. 

Excellent stock judging results of Dan 3rd in Linear, Lizzie and Pete 3rd Linear team and Lizzie 6th and Peter 7th individually, Sophie 14th and Joe 15th.

Field to Foto saw more fantastic results, 2nd in Photography, Lizzie 7th in Handling, Peter 7th in Clipping and team 5th overall. A tremendous effort with all the commitment and hard work giving them the worthy results.

 

Staffordshire Senior Club had success at The Dairy Day: -

Holstein Senior Yearling - Drointon Artist Zandra, A & D Mackellar

Holstein Intermediate 2-Year-Old in Milk - Folemill Fitz Dewdrop 4, M R Whitehurst

Congratulations to both members from The Club

 

The Calf Show was held on 24th September at the prestigious venue of Stafford County Showground and the Club Thanks them for their continued support in hosting and preparation of the venue. The Club welcomed Richard Armstrong to judge, 18 handlers, 41 calves, and 20 OAP Handlers, The OAP handlers raised £100 for the club, and first price to Lucy from Hydaways. Sponsorship has been received with thanks to everyone that has supported the day, with special Thanks to Grow Agri sponsoring the Calf Championships.

 

The Showmanship classes were competitive with the number of handlers and experience. Very encouraging for the next generation, looking at entries in the Junior class, keeping parents busy.
