Bowe Cup for Best Exhibitor Bred Friesian at Show
IHFA YMA Showmanship League 2024
Y.M.A. is the Young Members Association of the Holstein Friesian Association (IHFA). The ethos of the association is to foster young members in Holstein Friesian breeding and impact the necessary education and skills. Last year the National YMA Committee in conjunction with numerous local shows introduced a ‘Showmanship League’ as a new competition. The objective is to give YMA members the opportunity to hone their showing (showmanship) skills and experience by providing regular competitions in a show setting. The results are recorded which form the basis of a league format. At the end of the summer show season a final will be held where the overall winners will be presented with their prizes.
