ELIGIBILITY
Any
doe is eligible for the Futurity provided she qualifies under the following:
1. Open
to all purebred Fainting Goat does (any doe already registered as a purebred with a Fainting Goat registry or documentation as to family linage). A registration number or family linage must accompany the
nominee application.
2. Nominations
may only be made by the current owner of the doe, whether bred by the owner
or purchased from
another breeder.
3. Any
number of does may be nominated by an owner.
4. Following
initial nomination, any doe sold remains eligible regardless of ownership,
provided that subsequent yearly
re-nomination payments are made and the
Futurity has been notified of transfer of ownership.
5. Does
may be nominated at any time before the kidding date. When a nominated doe kids, all offspring are eligible for competition as long as
the doe was nominated BEFORE the kid(s) were born.
6. Doelings from nominated does are eligible to compete in Futurity classes until she has freshened or reaches the age of one day less than 24 months, provided that subsequent yearly re-nomination payments are made by the owner of the doe. Bucklings from nominated does are eligible to compete in Futurity classes until he reaches the age of one day less than 24 months, provided that subsequent yearly re-nomination payments are made by the owner of the doe.
7. If the nomination of the doe is not renewed, causing the doeling (now a yearling) to no longer be eligible to compete in futurity classes, then the owner of the doeling/yearling will be given the opportunity to pay the nomination fee in order to keep the doeling/yearling eligible until she either freshens or reaches the age of one day less than 24 months. If the doeling/yearling is nominated, her doelings will be eligible to compete as long as she kids within that year.
8. If the nomination of the doe is not renewed, causing the buckling (now a yearling) to no longer be eligible to compete in futurity classes, then the owner of the buckling/yearling will be given the opportunity to pay the nomination fee in order to keep the buckling/yearling eligible until he reaches the age of one day less than 24 months.
9. If eligible Futurity kids are born after the show season for that year has ended, the kids may show the following year whether the dam has been re-nominated or not. For example, if the last show of the season was in October 2018 and a nominated doe kids in November or December 2018, the kids are automatically eligible to compete in 2019 whether the does is re-nominated for 2019 or not.
10. No refunds will be made for any reason. The responsibility of re-nomination rests solely with the current owner.
If the nomination is not continued, previously submitted monies are relinquished by the owner.

Judging
The

Judges
Judges are not asked to anticipate what the doelings/yearling
will look like in the future. Instead, they are asked to judge the doelings/bucklings/yearlings
based on the quality of their confirmation and structure for their age,
while staying within the breed standards and focusing on herd conformation
and structure.

The payout will be announced after entries have been
received and will be awarded at the completion of the show.
