Junior members representing four Western states, Washington, Oregon, Montana, and Idaho, brought in their cattle to compete and participate in a variety of beef industry-related competitions. AJSA members were divided into junior and senior divisions according to their age and then given the opportunity to showcase their skills in various categories, including: cattlemen's quiz, public speaking, sales talk, judging contest, cattle show, and showmanship. The Regional classics are designed to provide competition and a learning experience to junior members throughout the nation and are patterned after ASA's National Classic.

Competition is designed to enhance the learning experience and showcase the skills of the contestants, through hands-on application, friendly competition, and public recognition.
