Flyball

Calendar  *   Local Clubs  *  Training  *  Equipment

Flyball is a relay race between two teams of four dogs.  Each team of dogs races over four jumps to a box with a tennis ball.  The dog triggers the box, retrieves the ball, and carries it back over the four jumps.  Dogs earn points and titles based on the team's time.  Teams also compete for placements and are divided into divisions based on their submitted seed times.  Information on tournaments, clubs, rules, and a database of team and individual results is available at the web page for the National body - North American Flyball Association -- www.flyball.org

 

Colorado is now part of NAFA Region 19 with New Mexico & Wyoming
Regional Director Melinda Fitts has a webpage and yahoo group for Region 19
