THE BRITISH TRIOS CHALLENGE

The British Agility Association are pleased to announce our third Team Trios event that will run throughout the summer season's shows beginning 1st April 2011, culminating in a British Trio's Challenge Final for each height of dog at the BAA Grand Prix Finals in August 2011.

FEATURING

BRITISH MINI/MICRO TRIO'S CHALLENGE

BRITISH MEDIUM TRIO'S CHALLENGE

BRITISH MAXI TRIO'S CHALLENGE

 

How will it work?

•  Each Team will consist of 1 Introductory, 1 Primary and 1 Novice Plus dog. For example, to enter a team for the

British Medium Trio's Challenge, the team must comprise 1 Introductory Medium, 1 Primary Medium and 1 Novice Plus Medium dog.

• During the season points will be accumulated at BAA Shows.
• Individual members of the team will earn points for their team dependent on their individual performances in the classes they compete in. All points-scoring classes count except for Junior and Veteran events.
• For the purposes of this challenge, the highest placed Maxi, Medium and Mini/Micro in each class will earn 10 points for their team, with the next highest earning 9 points and so on. All dogs will earn 1 point for a clear round outside the top 10 of their height.
• It is NOT a requirement that all 3 team members are competing at the same show for individual members to earn points for their team.
• Teams MUST register BEFORE they can earn any team points – points cannot be gained retrospectively.
• A team only needs to register once during the season using the form below.
• No dog can be a member of more than 1 team.

The Finals

• The top 10 Trios from each height category will qualify for the Finals. In the absence of a team member not attending the Finals a substitute may be nominated, but 2 of the original registered team must be in the competing team and the substitute must be competing at the same level as the absent member.
• The Final will take the form of a Trios Relay and the winners will receive the title British Team of the Year for their height.

To Register your Team

• Fill in the Entry Form and send completed forms to:

British Trios Challenge, c/o 54 Ferneley Crescent , Melton Mowbray , LE13 1RZ .

• Alternatively, hand in your completed forms at any EMDAC Show. Remember to hand them in first thing so that all your points will count!
