Part of the fun of flyball is your dog earning titles. For each race the team completes successfully the dogs earn points. The points are awarded per heat and in an average racing day one team races ~30 heats.

The two flyball organizations have different requirements for awarding points and different point-based titles. It takes years to earn a large number of points and so there is quite a bit of excitement (and possibly even a dog friendly cake) when a dog hits 20,000 points (NAFA: ONYX, UFLI:)
