We are a small flyball club in
Winnipeg,
Manitoba, Canada. We compete in Region 8 of the North American Flyball
Association. We host one tournament a year in June
(NAFA)
and while we are certainly not the most competitive team in the region,
we have fun trying!
WHAT IS FLYBALL
ANYWAYS...
Flyball is
a recreational dog sport that began in the late 1960′s and early
1970′s. Teams consist of 4 dogs who race each other in a head-to-head
format. Similar to a relay race, each dog runs over four jumps and
pounces on a spring-loaded box that releases a tennis ball. Each dog
must catch the ball and race back over the jumps to the finish line
before the next dog can go. The first team to have all four dogs run
without errors wins.
Flyball
provides an entertaining and active way to interact with one's dog and
other dog lovers in an environment that is fun and allows the dogs
exercise and enjoyment. It is especially a great way to burn off the
energy of dogs with a high drive to work, such as Border Collies
and terriers.
