2018 COMPETITIONS

Welcome from the President

Competitions are the heart of the Royal Queensland Show (Ekka) as they encourage exhibitors to strive to produce the best of the best year in year out.

The state’s largest annual event has seen competitors rewarded and recognised for their skill, hard work and dedication since 1876.

In 2017, as Ekka celebrated its 140th anniversary, Queensland’s premier competition event attracted 21,000 entries across 13,000 classes in 48 competition sections.

More than 4,100 exhibitors competed for their chance to take home a coveted blue ribbon and share in a prize pool of more than $565,000. This included 1,378 new competitors.

Our competitions continue to grow in popularity each year. Last year saw a record 2,889 entries received in the beef sections, while Woodchop and Sawing entries reached 2,000 for the very first time - an increase of 30 per cent on 2016.

Painting and Drawing, Pisciculture, Poultry, Quilts Across Queensland, Sculpture, Bush Poetry and Wool also enjoyed increases in entries.

Some of our competitions were even recognised at the 2017 International Association of Fairs and Expositions (IAFE) Awards, which represents more than 1,100 fairs around the world.

The RNA received a total of 19 international awards for excellence, six of those for our competitions, with Woodchop and Sawing, Paddock to Palate and Pisciculture among those recognised.

For 143 years, the RNA has been dedicated to celebrating and championing agriculture and the critical role it plays in the everyday lives of Queenslanders.

The RNA is honoured to stage the Ekka, the people’s show, on behalf of the community each year, showcasing the best of the best to an average of around 400,000 people.

Good luck and we look forward to seeing your high quality entries at the 2018 Royal Queensland Show.

Ms Moira Bruce (Queensland) Judging: Agility and Jumping

For as long as she can remember dogs have been a huge part of Moira’s life. At

around 12 years old she saw an agility demonstration at a local Pet Expo and from

that moment it became her goal to one day get a chocolate Border Collie and take

part in such an incredible team sport. Moira got her chocolate Border Collie “Fly” in

2006 and has been a member of Dogs Queensland since then. She has been heavily

involved in Agility over the years and has also competed in Conformation Showing,

Rally O and Obedience – titling her dogs in all these disciplines.

Moira is proud of her results as an agility handler and the success of her dogs. Her

dogs have placed in the top 10 South East QLD Agility and Jumping Dog of the Year

6 times since 2010, and have placed in both State and National events.

She is always looking to further her knowledge and skills in agility. She attends

courses and keeps up to date with the latest handling techniques and course design

and is always happy to pass on her knowledge and has instructed agility for many

years at her local ANKC clubs. She has also assisted the Border Collie Club of QLD to

organise the dog sports events at the 2016 4th Border Collie Nationals.

In 2015 she decided to become an Agility Judge and has judged at many

competitions locally and has travelled interstate for numerous judging appointments.

She feels that judging is an incredible experience; being able to develop a course and

then stand in the middle judging the skills and teamwork of the dogs and handlers.

Moira has competed at the Royal Brisbane Show many times over the years with her

own dogs and is now looking forward to judging at such a fabulous event where

handlers can showcase their beautiful dogs across all the disciplines.

She wishes all the best to everyone competing this year.

occupation by the exhibitor/competitor of any area of the

Showgrounds.

not in a fit state to be exhibited may be rejected by them

and debarred from competing in the class or classes for

which it is entered. Any animal rejected must be removed

from the Showgrounds as soon as the exhibitor is notified.

No animal showing signs of any disease or illness

particularly warts, ringworm and pinkeye will be allowed

onto the grounds.

VETERINARY TREATMENT & INSPECTION

12. If, in the opinion of a Council Steward of a Section, an

exhibit in such section requires veterinary treatment, then if

the exhibitor cannot be contacted immediately, the Council

Steward may instruct a Veterinary Surgeon to treat such

exhibit and the costs of such Veterinary Surgeon shall be

paid by the exhibitor to the Association. The Association

shall not be in any way liable to an exhibitor for any damage

to or injury to such exhibit.

13. No pharmaceutical shall be administered to any animal

exhibit except under the direction of the Association's

Veterinary Surgeon who shall advise the Council Stewards

if in his opinion such pharmaceutical is likely to have any

effect upon the animal which would be material to its

chances of being awarded a prize and in such case the

Council Stewards may debar the animal from competing. A

Council Steward may at any time direct the Association's

Veterinary Surgeons to take a sample of blood, saliva or

urine from an exhibit for testing.

DISEASE OR DANGER

58. Should there be any reason to suspect that any Exhibit is

either diseased or dangerous, or objectionable, the Council

through its Officials, reserves the rights of removing the

same from or refusing its admittance to the Royal

section;

its/their accommodation area/s unless advised

otherwise by the Superintendent or the

paid by the Exhibitor to the Association. The Association

shall not be in any way liable to an Exhibitor for any

damage to or injury to such Exhibit.

62. Where, in the opinion of the Association, an Exhibit, being

an animal, should be destroyed or removed from the

Showgrounds, the Association’s Veterinary Surgeon or the

Association may destroy or remove the Exhibit from the

require the Exhibitor to destroy or remove the Exhibit from

the Showgrounds, or both. Any costs incurred by the

Association pursuant to this By-Law must be reimbursed

by the Exhibitor.

63. The Association shall not be responsible for any loss or

damage caused (inter alia) through disease or infection

howsoever arising.

objects of like nature;

(e) that is not the animal or the object or thing

entered for the Class to be judged;

procedures as he considers appropriate; and

(c) examine the Exhibit for desensitised limbs.

limb (or part thereof) desensitised is deemed to have

had administered to it a Prohibited Substance in

breach of the By-Laws.

the opinion that a Prohibited Substance may have

been administered to an Exhibit, the Veterinary

Surgeon may require that the Exhibit be examined

prior to competing in that event.

the examination of Exhibits. Such procedures are
