1.  Clubs may enter more than one competitor per competition, only the highest score will go towards the shield. Maximum of two entries per club per competition, unless stated. All ‘book in’ competitions are only one entry per club. One entry per member per competition?

2.  Competitors must be a member of a Young Farmers’ Club, with a CURRENT membership card from County Office. Must be shown at the start of the competition. Card must have recent photograph and BE SIGNED.

3.  All entries to be the competitors’ own unaided work.

4.  Entry forms for pre-rally competitions to be returned by Clubs by the date stated on the form.

5.  Rally day competitions – Intention to Enter forms (without names) to be returned to County Office before 1st April 2016. Final alterations must be notified two weeks before Rally.

6.  Entry forms, with names of competitors to be in the Rally Office before 10.30am on Rally Day.

7.  Competitors will be required to take part in both parts of a two part competition.

8.  All competitors to report to the Competition Steward 15 minutes prior to the official start time.

9.  Any competitor or substitute reporting late will be disqualified unless an agreement has been made with the Steward, with the approval of the Judge, before starting time.

10. In the interests of hygiene all cookery items are to be covered.

11. NO EXHIBIT or part is to be removed from its point of display before 4.30pm. Any club or member not complying with this rule will lose ALL MARKS in that competition.

12. Judges do not like to disqualify entries, but the following will be in place.

ENTRY / example / theme / per rules / workmanship / display / taste? / Total / comments
NO. / 10 / 25 / etc / etc / 100
1 / Members Name & Club
2 / only filled in after judging

For example – if rules read max size 30cms x 30cms and the item is over this, or it states 6 items to be displayed and only 4 are there, then 0 points should be given for following the ‘per rules’ section (25% of total marks for the competition) on the score sheet, but the rest of the item can be judged and scored. If however the competition is a National Competition (NC) and the rules have not been followed, then disqualification will apply = 10 points, as would be so if item had gone through to National Final. All competitions are out of 100 (unless stated for National Competitions). The minimum score for attending and competing is 25 points. With disqualification being 10 points

13. All Static competitions must be ready for judging at 11.00am. unless stated in competition rules.

15. The decision of the Judge is final.

16. Competitions marked NC (National Competition), the winner of the County competition will be asked to represent Wiltshire at the Area or National Final.

Members are asked to note that anyone winning through to a National competition will incur any fines directly for none attendance at the final. Once National have been notified who the winning entries are from each County or Area, they deal directly with the winning team or competitor and NOT County, so it is your responsibility to give a minimum of two weeks notice if unable to attend. It would also be nice if you could notify County of you pulling out because the next place team may be keen to compete in a National final in your place and the longer the notice they have the better prepared they can be.

17. Confirmation of complaints procedure. Complaints must be taken to Rally Chairman, County Chairman and Chief Steward within 24hrs of discrepancies, unless on Rally Day then as soon as possible after the competition has been judged. Members are reminded NOT to aggressively confront judges, but a civil discussion with them is usually possible. Speak to competition steward first if you have a grievance. Judges usually try to give constructive criticism to assist members in learning where to improve for future events – they are NOT personal criticisms.
