JUDGING
What is your past experience of judging shows in the UK?
I began my judging journey in 2013, becoming a CCBA foundation judge. I then spent time shadowing CCBA full panel judges like Alan Mason, Simon Meredith and Geoff Walker. I judged at CBS shows across the country, including Gainsborough, Ilkeston & Erewash and Nuneaton, where Mick Burke took me for further training.
In 2015 I became an intermediate CCBA judge, which continued my learning curve and ensured I was active at shows. I judged the Home Counties young stock show. In 2018, I took my CCBA full panel test at the All-Colour Show (ACS), which I passed. Since becoming a UK CCBA full panel judge, I have officiated at various zone shows: Northern Ireland, West Midlands, the National and the ACS.
