SHOW CLASSIFICATIONS:
SPBE has designed this series of classifications with the idea that Affiliate Clubs can reduce and abbreviate them for smaller Shows. This holds true in the Intermediate and Short version, But the Complete version MUST be used for any larger Shows

An exhibitor may place three times on the top ten before being required to advance to the Open or Close-banded Subdivisions. Birds that are purchased having already earned SPBE points are not eligible for entry in the Novice Subdivision.
