http://agrilife.org/qualitycounts/  

If you have never  shown in a Major Livestock Show and plan to show ( Major Livestock Shows are, Houston Livestock Show, Rodeo Austin Livestock Show, San Antonio Livestock Show, Fort Worth, San Angelo etc.)  You will need a quality counts number. 

Exhibitors only need to be verified once as a junior and once again as a senior.  Junior is 8 and in the 3^rd grade through 13 years of age as of the previous August 31^st.  Senior is 14 years or older as of the previous August 31^st.

Anyone showing in a Major Livestock Show that has turned 14 before August 31, 2017 is required to get the Senior Level quality counts number.
