Practices: We will give everyone as many goes as we can during practice time and will vary depending on the number of sorters. 

During the winter season (November - March),Team Sorting practices are held twice monthly on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday and begin at 6pm. 

During our outdoor season (April-September) we hold practices twice per week, Wednesday's and Thursdays, beginning at 6pm. When outdoors the sorting pen is generally set up, allowing for more practice time.

We also hold practice on Friday prior to each event.

Cost to practice is $20 for Appleatchee members and $25 ($20+$5 arena fee) for non-members. Please come prepared to help set up pens and mark cattle before practice and take down the pens after we finish.
