It's about cutting or 'shearing' the wool from a sheep.
The competition started in 1961.
The men and women come from different countries.
Sheep-shearing is an important sport.

For Joel Henare, it's not just about your body.
It's about your mind too.
The competition happens every year.
It lasts three days.
Each person has to shear 20 sheep.
Lots of people watch in the stadium.
And 70,000 watch online.
It's important to take off the wool in the right way.
You can't cut the animal or the person.

It's about the 'wool handlers' too.
They work hard, like the cutters.
The wool handlers take away the wool.
They understand wool and work very fast.
