Sire and Dam of the Year Awards Announced

The initial 2005 awards of Sire of the Year and Dam of the Year were announced at the Association’s AGM in March, 2006. The awards were based on points accrued in 2005.

Sire of the Year Award:        Winner:  Johill Park Tyson  (83 Points)

            Current Owners:           Tangara Simmentals, Walla Walla, NSW and

                                                Murrinstone Simmentals, Yea, Vic

Dam of the Year Award:       Winner:  Topweight Bettina 126   (99 Points)

            Current Owner:            Topweight Simmentals, Margaret River, WA

It is expected these awards will create a lot of interest amongst members, with points being progressively accrued (and published) by sires and dams and the overall awards presented annually at the AGM.

Points are awarded for Royal and Regional Show successes, number of analysed progeny, value of progeny transfers, performance merit on Breed Index and Scan Carcase results. 

The Association will monitor most points, with submission of Regional Show awards to be the owners’ responsibility. Point scoring commenced with 2005 results.
