Congratulations to Our Arizona 4-H Poultry Judging Team!
We are incredibly proud of our team of four outstanding Arizona 4-H members who competed at the National 4-H Poultry Judging and Egg Conference on November 19–20, 2025. Their hard work, dedication, and countless hours of practice truly paid off on the national stage!
Team Achievement:
Arizona placed 8th in the nation as a team—an amazing accomplishment among top competitors from across the country.
This team trained hard all year, putting in long practice sessions, studying quality standards, and building the skills needed to succeed at such a high level. We are so proud of everything they achieved!
Want to compete?
Arizona will once again send a state team of four senior members to the National 4-H Poultry Judging and Egg Conference in Kentucky in November. If you are interested in the opportunity to be selected for the 2027 team, the qualifying contest will be held early in 2027. Details on the location and date of the qualifying event will be added as they are announced throughout the year.
To learn more about the national contest, you can check out their website.
If you have questions or are interested in sponsoring the team, please contact Ariana Dillard at dillarda1@arizona.edu.
Please note: this is a state-run team, so Pima County 4-H does not manage the team selection and may not have additional details to share.
Whether you’re brand-new to poultry judging or already experienced, we encourage you to try out—your hard work and dedication could take you all the way to nationals next year!
