The Young Woman Competition plays a significant role in the development of rural women and their communities.
Judging at a local level takes place throughout the year at each of the participating local Show Societies with the
judging for Zone Finals being conducted in February/March of each year and the State Final during the Sydney Royal Easter Show.
It is open to young women aged 18-25 years.
With the aim of becoming ambassadors for their region and rural NSW, the contestants 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.
