General Conditions of Entry

As this is a Regional competition, we are expecting larger than usual entry numbers.  There is a strong possibility that we will run late on all 3 days, including Sunday. Please make your travel plans accordingly.  We cannot make accommodations to run competitors out of order based on travel plans, flights, etc. FAULT LIMITS MAY BE APPLIED in all classes for which faults are assessed.  Limits, if any, shall be announced during the judges' briefings. In the event that entries exceed levels that are deemed manageable for this event, one class each day may be rescheduled for another day or cancelled. If a class should be cancelled, a full refund for the class may be made.  USDAA and/or Keystone Agility Club assumes no additional liability related to reschedule or cancellation of classes for any reason.

Policy on Fault Limits

In the event of a larger entry, fault limits may be set at the discretion of the Organizing Committee and/or Judge without pre-event notice.

Statement of Responsibility

Competitors alone are responsible for the behavior of themselves, their dogs, children, and guests. A competitor whose dogs, children or guests create unnecessary disturbances or repeatedly engage in unsafe or disruptive behavior may, at the discretion of the Event Organizing Committee, be asked to leave the test site.

Prohibitions on Aids & Devices

No leads, collars, food, toys or other aids or devices shall be permitted on the course at any time, except as provided for in Chapter 10 when Intro Program classes are offered, or in Chapter 8 when Junior Handler Program classes are offered.

Bitches In Season Allowed at This Event

Special provisions are being made for competitors who have bitches in season.  However, any dog that is ill or exhausted and pregnant bitches cannot take part in the running of any class.  For details go to  USDAA Policy Statements, which are hereby incorporated by reference.

Fix & Continue Will Be Allowed At This Event

The USDAA Policy Statement on Training in the Ring or "Fix & Continue" has been adopted for this event and is hereby incorporated in its entirety by reference. Competitors are expected to familiarize themselves with this policy, which can be found on the USDAA web site at Official USDAA Policy Statements.

Fix & Continue during a competition run generally provides for repeat of an obstacle at handler's discretion under conditions set forth in the Policy Statement. When discretion is exercised to utilize the Fix & Continue, their score will be recorded as an elimination and the maximum course time set to 60 seconds. This practice may be utilized only once in any Standard, Jumpers, or Relay class (including similarly-styled tournament classes at qualifying events). The competitor must continue working the course in flow, while "fixing" and "continuing" on the course. See the Policy Statement referenced above for complete details.

Mulligan Runs Not Allowed At This Event

Due to time constraints, the show committee has determined that Mulligan Runs will not be available at this trial.
