Jersey Canada is pleased to announce the Judges for the 2025 National Jersey Show at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair.

Our official judge is Kyle Rivington. Kyle is from Carp, Ontario where he helps operate Glennholme Holsteins and Riview Jerseys. He is the seventh generation on this family-oriented farm where he milks 60 Holsteins and 10 Jerseys along with his parents and wife, Sophie. Kyle and Sophie have two children, Sawyer and Andi.

As a youth, Kyle was an avid 4-H member. He always enjoyed showing heifers in the TD Classic at the Royal and competing in the Intercounty Dairy Judging
Competition. Kyle, along with his wife Sophie, continues to show animals from Glennholme and Riview at local and championship level shows as well as at the RAWF.

Kyle feels very grateful for all the judging opportunities he has had in the past, and is extremely excited for the National Jersey Show this year. He has enjoyed judging at local 4-H, County Holstein, and Jersey Parish shows throughout Ontario and Quebec. He’s been privileged enough to judge both the Showmanship and Conformation classes at the Western Canadian Classic, as well as Showmanship at the TD Classic in 2023.The Association Judge for the 2025 National Jersey Show is Brian Rivington.

Brian is from Carp Ontario, where he and his wife Jill own and operate Glennholme Holsteins. They have four children Kristie, Kyle, Chelsea and Jaclyn, who were all involved with daily farm work and showing dairy calves while growing up. Kyle continues to work alongside them today.
