Check out our news page on a in-depth & informative 2 part article on using the NFC option during your trailing runs. Written by Tara Baggerman & Jared Davis ukagilityinternational.com/maximizing-the-uki-nfc-option/
Great article Tara Baggerman and Jared. I love the option of NFC runs for both green and seasoned dogs.
Tara and Jared, great article. A lot don't understand the value in NFC. Imagine a UKI trial that everyone had to do NFC at least once? With set criteria of more points for more rewarding.
Great article, Tara Baggerman and Jared Davis!!
Throughout weeks 7 and 8 the Beginner Novice trials have become popular, with many clear runs gaining points to move up to the next level.
With a few thousand runs between our judges Becky, Bill, Chloe, Iris and Kelly, they have been kept busy watching some great video submissions.
Congratulations to all who have submitted a clean run, the weekly ratio of submitted clean runs outweighs the NQ’s, and your practise on the challenges that have been set, has been paying dividends. We hope that you have been enjoying the courses so far. We have some exciting courses planned by experienced international judges for the forthcoming weeks.
Once again, your generosity in helping the chosen charity of Humane Society International, has helped to raise $890, by purchasing the course maps, and we appreciate your continued support.
The awards are presented for Week 7 and 8 as follows:
Have fun with your dogs, enjoy competing, and stay safe and healthy.
Kathy Kealey, Congratulations!
Woohoo Hannah SmithHannah!!

Entries for this Week 10 trial Open on 30th May closing on 4th June. To enter entries.ukagilityinternational.com/showdiary.aspx
Love these at home challenges! As you guys said they are not easy but you can practice. I have a young dog that was just ready to start showing and this has been such an awesome way to start! Maybe a great permanent addition, even when trials start up again, for going thru beginner or half of novice, just a thought. 😊😉🤔
Thank you so much for offering the UKI At Home Trials! They have been such a blessing during this uncertain time. 😊
I'll be there (well, here)! LOVE the UKI at Home program.
I wish that UKI would consider adding an 80'x100' ring size to their online program. That would allow these guest judges to really shine.
Thank you for offering these trials - they are challenging and fun!
Thank you!
Are there example 30 x 30 maps posted somewhere? I would like to see one or two, before entering. To get an idea of what they are like.
I will I had a bigger area then 30 by 30

For a long time, MSS has been the most common forelimb orthopedic condition seen in agility dogs; however, over the past few years, the global incidence is rising at a startling rate. Why? In this webinar, Dr. Canapp digs deep into the cause of the injury, diagnostics, treatment options, prevention....Martina Hancock

Nicola Giraudi
For all 3 Trials (30x30, 60x40 & 80x60)

We have several more top level judges from around the world lined up to design the International trials throughout June.
Entries for this Week 9 trial Open on 23rd May closing on 28th May.
Can we do these with other people yet if our state allows small gatherings now? I love the concept of this but I did one and it made me realize I hate trialing/ training/ practicing alone!
Guest judges = great idea!
Love the guest judge! I was hoping for that!
Awesome idea and awesome judge!! 😎
OMG! Thia is a treat! CANNOT WAIT!
Wow! That is great, and super experience at Home!
And it just keeps getting better and better 😊😊😊😊
LOVE!!! Awesome judge...awesome person❤️ I’m in...well, I’m in every week😀😀😀
I got super excited about this, so I checked out the premium. I was really bummed to read “AF only” is the equipment requirements. Grateful that the earlier trials allowed the exchange of AF/SS. Hopefully your future international judges might allow the flexibility that you folks did from trial 2–>8.🤞🤞
I too hope the teeter will again be able to be used in the 60x40 agility/snooker/gambler classes as I don't have an A-frame and want to enter these in the weeks ahead.
Is there still late entry as there has been previously? And, just to clarify, if my state allows gatherings of 10 or less people, then myself and a friend should be able to use one of our yards together?
Greg Derrett - is there any shot i can be provided with cordinates for the aframe only? I will need help getting that set up and moved ahead of time since we can’t use the teeter. Thank you
UK Agility International Did Nic also design the novice courses?
Michelle Abdo here is next weeks UKI course, which is a guest judge and course designer
Wish Gunnar wasn't injured!
Where do we post our NFC this week
Katie Weihbrecht! Let’s do it!
Yeah!!
Awesome!
In Week 5 and 6, the UKI At Home Agility trials continued to be popular, with the introduction of Beginner and Novice trials.
Our judges have been watching intently all video submissions, approx 4,000 runs in the past couple of weeks.
The At Home Agility trials continue to offer challenges to you all, Q points for Open Byes are being gained, Championship titles awarded, and level move ups each week. Congratulations to everyone who has submitted a clean run so far.
Once again your generosity in helping the two chosen charities of Farm Kids Giving and Humane Society International, has helped to raise $1120.00 between the two charities, and we appreciate your ongoing support.
Our judges have considered the runs, and awards are presented for Week 5 and 6 as below.
Have fun with your dogs, enjoy competing, and stay safe and healthy.
Thanks so very much to all the UKI team for providing a means for us all to play with our dogs. We really appreciate your hard work!
