General Show Information

The All American’s main event consists of two days of cattle exhibition where youth have the opportunity to exhibit both bulls and females in their respective divisions. 

The Bred-and-Owned Show gives AJBA members a chance to produce their own champions. In this competition, members exhibit cattle that they have bred and raised themselves.

The F-1 Female Show gives AJBA members a chance to exhibit Golden Certified/Certified F-1 females at the All American. F-1 females must be certified through the ABBA F-1 Program Certificate Option and certificates must be in the exhibitors name prior to May 1, 2021. 

A complete list of guidelines will be available in the 2021 All American entry packet.

Showmanship

To become champion showman, youth must display their animal to its best potential, practice good sportsmanship, and prove their knowledge and experience of proper show ring etiquette.

Educational Contests

More than a cattle show, the All American is an all-around youth competition and provides an opportunity for AJBA members to demonstrate skills in different areas.
