Storm Chasers Flyball Team
Proud to be Sponsored by Dorwest Herbs
Is your dog full of beans? Fancy trying something new and exciting?
Storm Chasers Flyball Team are holding training sessions at Waldorf Playing Fields (Behind Rising Moon on Matley Lane SK14 4EG) Saturday's From 10am. (Please check my Facebook page or ring/email/text me to see which days we are training.)
Team Training (for those who wish to compete) will begin at 12pm
Flyball is a fast and exciting relay race for dogs. The sport is becoming increasingly popular in the UK and is a great outlet for energetic dogs. Shy dogs learn to become more confident and “hyperactive” dogs learn control and focus.
Flyball consists of two teams of four dogs. The course is 51ft in length and consists of 4 hurdles and a spring loaded box which holds a tennis ball. The dogs go over the hurdles, jump onto the box releasing the tennis ball, catch the ball and return over all 4 jumps. As the dogs returns across the start line the next dog then races down and so on until all four dogs have completed without fault.
A great way to strengthen that bond between dog and owner and once you’ve actually competed the addiction is impossible to shake!
All you need is yourself, your dog, plenty of treats/toys and a positive attitude.
You may wish to bring a chair to sit on and some water for your dog, though this will be provided at the venue.
Please note;
Dogs of any breed are welcome. Dogs under 7 months old will not be eligible to train, though there are some foundation exercises the Club can help you with. Dogs under 10 months will not be eligible to start “box work.” Dogs under 16 months will not be eligible to go over jumps higher than 12”.
Fees:
Fun Flyball, £3 per dog for your first session, £4 thereafter (2 hour session)
Team Flyball £3 per person
Looking forward to seeing you there!
