The yards and crush will remain as a permanent upgrade to the Showground.
Team Sorting is an equine event growing in popularity across the state where riders have fun while improving their horse skills.
Working in teams of two riders, the aim is to sort 10 head of cattle in numeric order in the shortest time possible from one pen to another.
Skill is required to complete the sort while keeping unwanted cattle from passing through the gate.
Strict rules apply to ensure the safety and care of horses, cattle and riders.
Prize money is awarded based on the fastest qualifying times for the day.
Team sorting is fast becoming one of the most popular family equine events in Australia.
Gates open early each morning and entry is free for spectators.
The Grenfell Rural Fire Service will be running a BBQ over the weekend.
This Team Sorting challenge is sure to be a fun, entertaining event for the whole family to enjoy.
