NJAA Code of Conduct

The NJAA Code of Conduct is a set of guidelines for junior members that defines the expectations for junior actions and specifies consequences that could be enforced if the code is violated. Each NJAA member, along with a parental guardian(s), will need to read, sign and submit the NJAA Code of Conduct prior to participation in the individual’s first NJAA-sponsored show or conference of the year.

Read the code of conduct

Show Classifications

Across the United States, many shows qualify and receive premiums from the American Angus Association. Shows must follow these classifications and the American Angus Association premium participation statement to receive funds.
