FINLEY YOUNG WOMAN COMPETITION

Formerly the Showgirl Competition
Prize Money: 1st $150.00    2nd $50.00 (plus gift prizes for winners)
SPONSORS: Essential Hair, Finley Pharmacy, Finley Country Club


The Sydney Royal Young Woman of the Year Competition aims to find a young woman to act as an ambassador for rural NSW with her role involving many official and informal duties both at the Sydney Royal Easter Show and during her travels interstate and overseas.

The Competition encourages the participation and subsequent awareness of rural women’s contribution and involvement in both local communities and rural NSW as a whole. It is most important entrants have a genuine interest in, and knowledge of, rural NSW.
 
Entrants are judged on personality, confidence, ambition and life goals, general knowledge, rural knowledge, presentation and speech. Finalists are also asked to demonstrate knowledge of their local community and current affairs and apart from their potential ambassadorial qualities, contestants are also judged on their involvement in and experience of rural affairs.
 
The competition is open to young women aged 18-24 as at May 1, 2023. Any young ladies are ask to get in touch with a committee member or the Secretary. Judging will take place prior to or on Show Day, and all entrants are asked to help during Show Day. The winner will go on to the Zone Final in Walbundrie in 2023.
