Speaking Competitions

What does the competition look like?

• LDE's (leadership development events) are different types of speaking competitions that not only improve leadership, but encourage bravery within FFA

• The Horse Evaluation Competition consists of 2 parts:

  • • Evaluating Classes (watching horses perform and placing them)

    • Oral Reasons (explaining your placings to a judge)

• Each team consists of 4 competing members and possibly one alternate

  • • The alternate will go to the competition and participate in evaluating classes but will not participate in oral reasons 

    • Before the competition we will have a test to evaluate our members and decide who will be competing in the competition

When/Where is our competition?

• The Horse Evaluation is held at Middle Tennessee State University in the Miller Colesium
