Record Breaking Agility Entries at Upcoming 2011 National

Who would guess during a struggling economy that we would be reporting RECORD-BREAKING entries? The 2011 GSCA Agility Trial has over 60 runs entered so far and we still have a long time until the closing date of May 18, 2011. The response has been so strong that we increased the entry limit to 330 which is the maximum an AKC judge is allowed to review in a day. Send in your entries!!!

Standard, Jumpers With Weaves and FAST will be offered.

The revised premium reflecting the 330 run limit is available on the GSCA National 2011 website.

The trial was originally limited to 60 runs due to the pricing of the building and agility trial software. The committee wanted to hold agility but needed to keep expenses in check. Because a GSCA trial has never reached 60 runs, it seemed like a safe bet. In 2010 there were 29 runs and in 2008 there were 34 runs. 2011 will be a record breaking year!!!

Thank you to everyone who has entered so far!!
