This run-through day is being held to create a trial-like environment for agility teams to practice on a "standard" course. This is appropriate for young or green teams, teams that need to work through ring stress, or just want to try out some courses non-competitively. A trial-like environment is different than class because the ring will have a “judge,” ring crew, numbered courses, and timers, which you may not always use in class. There will also be “trial-like” energy which includes lots of dogs and people around, a different configuration of the club space, and a higher noise/energy level in the building.
Details:
