The Society is delighted to be bringing its 11th National Show of South Devons back to the Devon County Show. Schedules will be available from the Devon County Show website https://www.devoncountyshow.co.uk/competitions-schedules/schedules. We anticipate entries exceeding 100 cattle which will make a tremendous show of South Devon breeding attributes, and judge Mr Lionel Pascoe from Hayle in Cornwall is very much looking forward to the task of finding his winners.

Championship Line Up

The tenth National Show of South Devons was as impressive as the first one back in 2010 – big line-ups of excellent quality cattle providing a wonderful display, this time to the many visitors who flocked to the Royal Welsh Show. As ever, it was well supported, with cattle from Cornwall, Devon, Somerset, Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire, Warwickshire, Northamptonshire, Leicestershire, Rutland, Shropshire, Staffordshire, and Ceredigion. It was a tremendous effort made by breeders to bring together a great competition that was widely admired and commented on.

9th National Show of South Devons

Suffolk County Show, 30th & 31st May 2018

Our Show hosts at the Suffolk County could not have been more welcoming or accommodating for our 9th National Show. We received lots of attention, plenty of publicity, and very efficient stewarding. Our breed marquee was in a prime spot by the ringside, and we were given the nearest cattle stallings. All in all it was a great event and we hope to have left a bit of a mark as to what our breed can offer farmers in East Anglia!
