💥 New Rule coming💥

NEW JUNIOR OWNERSHIP RULE
effective March 2027

Sibling Multi-Ownership Rule
Multiple ownership of an animal is permitted only between eligible sibling junior members. This option is intended to provide flexibility for families with multiple junior members while maintaining individual exhibitor responsibility and preventing ownership arrangements with adults, breeders, farms or other non-sibling parties.

To qualify for sibling multi-ownership:

Eligible Owners: All listed owners must be current AJSA members and meet AJSA age eligibility requirements.
Sibling Definition: Multiple owners must be siblings, including full siblings (half-siblings, step-siblings or foster-siblings) who have the same contact address listed in the registry.
Ownership Restrictions: Parents, grandparents, other relatives, expired junior members who have aged out of AJSA eligibility, unrelated individuals, breeders, syndicates, partnerships, farm names or family farm names may not be included as additional owners for an animal to qualify under the Sibling Multi-Ownership Rule.
Registration: All eligible sibling owners must be listed as owners on the animal's registration or record by the applicable ownership deadline.
Designated Exhibitor: The junior member who enters the animal for a specific show is considered the designated exhibitor and is required to exhibit that animal at that show.
No Exhibitor Changes: Once entries have closed, the designated exhibitor may not be changed to another sibling at the show, regardless of whether the other sibling is also a registered owner of the animal.
One Entry Per Show: An animal may only be entered and exhibited by one sibling at each individual show or event. Joint ownership does not permit the same animal to be entered under multiple siblings at the same show.
Exhibitor Designation by Show: The designated exhibitor is specific to each show. A different eligible sibling owner may enter and exhibit the animal at a subsequent show, provided that sibling is listed as an owner and completes the entry for that event by the applicable entry deadline.

This rule will go into effect in March 2027 following the 2026-2027 show season. The first show this will be in place is the 2027 National Junior Shorthorn Show.
