Rotherham Flyball

So today was the day our new team made their debut in the flyball world.
The team running order after a few tweaks here and there consisted of:

1st leg: Ronny handled by Nige
2nd leg: Maisy handled by Amy
3rd leg: Keisha handled by Jo
4th Leg: Dylan handled by Emma

Box Loader: My mum Sheila
Ball collector: Tully Kearney

We were seeded last in our division so I guess there were no great expectations. So here's how the story goes.............

We won our first race with a fantastic time, beating our seed time of 20.74 and reducing it to 20.58. The dogs looked on good form and we were in for a good day's racing.
Our 2nd race didn't go so well, unfortunately we didn't win this race so we had a few tweaking issues to sort out. Fortunately that was all our races for the first half of the day, so we could discuss over lunch our new game plan.



So out we came and ran a fantastic race, beating our opposition and yet again beating our new time to come in at 20.48. The dogs maintained their form and then went onto win the 4th and fifth race's with fantastic runs.

We checked the board to see where we had come, there were three of us all tied for joint first, to decide the placings it goes on the quickest time each team ran during the day, unfortunately we didn't get the quickest time, but we did get the second quickest time.



Fantastic, what a great start for our new team, 2nd place with a new faster time, who could ask anymore from them.

Of course our baby Brickyard Bandits to be, needed entertaining, what better than to do it themselves!



Thanks to Tully Kearney for filming the doggies today.
