FT TRAINING DAY
FTCFTS

After the very successful day at St Germans in 2011 the club is putting on another similar day to incorporate walked up trialling.

The emphasis will be very firmly on the understanding and application of KC FT Rules and Regulations. There will be no less than four panel judges offering their knowledge and experience for your benefit.

The day will be run with 14 competing retrievers running under trainee judges and trainee officials as a walked up trial with spaniels working in front of the line. The day will conclude with a short drive.

For those wanting to gain experience in trialing please volunteer to be dummy throwers and game carriers. The day is likely to be very popular so please get in touch as soon as possible.
