Showmanship results

History has been made. For the first time ever a Swedish National Championship in beef showmanship was arranged at Mila 2009. For many years young farmers have been competing in the art of showing cattle, but this was the first time adults were offered the chance to participate.

1. Terese Friström

This is my reward for 20 years of hard work commented Teresè.
Teresè has trained too many young showmanship participants to mention and has been an importent roll model for them.

2. Miranda Harding
3. Lowa Göransdotter.

Other Hereford placeings: 6. plats Camilla Kant.

For Miranda Harding in 2nd place, this was only the fith time she had shown cattle. Lowa (on right) had just the moment before taken 2nd place in youth showmanship. Two long showmanship classes in a row is very demanding.
