TEAMS

• For county contests, each 4-H, FFA, or O.H.C. Organization may enter as many junior (9-13 years) and senior (14-18 years) teams of three (3) members each as permitted by that county. (These ages are to comply with the 4-H age rules.) .

• Teams may use a member from another club if needed to fill a team. A junior can be used on a senior team but you can not use a senior on a junior team.

• All team members MUST WEAR boots or heavy leather shoes and long pants.

• Winning teams from county may substitute youth as needed to maintain the team for state competition.

• Back numbers that are large enough to be seen from a distance must be worn at all times.

• Clothing cannot be worn that will identify a team or youth by county or club.

• No gloves or coveralls may be worn. Gloves or dust masks may be used while grooming if for medical reasons.

• Each team will provide its own grooming tools (see grooming kit). No electric or battery powered equipment may be used.

• Only one junior and one senior team from each county may compete in the state contest.

• Winning members and teams may return to compete in subsequent years.
