Showcase your shearing skills at the Peth Royal Show Sheep Shearing competition!

Sheep Shearing holds a special place in Australian agricultural history, representing an integral part of our cultural legacy. These competitions not only celebrate our shearing traditions but also serve as an educational platform for the broader public.

Did you know that the first authenticated tally of sheep shorn in a single day was 30 sheep by a blade shearer in 1835? By 1892, the record had soared to 321 sheep, and since then, records have continued to tumble. In 1986, Western Australia recorded its biggest wool clip of 231,000,000 kg, showcasing the importance and significance of shearing in our agricultural landscape.

Now is your chance to be part of this historic tradition and showcase your shearing prowess at the Perth Royal Show!
