Agility Dog Club of NSW presents its awards at their annual Christmas Party.
ADC Awards;
Club Competitions
Since 1992, the Agility Dog Club of NSW has run a club competition for its upper classes. Over the years it has evolved and changed to keep in line with ANKC rules.
As well as achknologing the overall winners we have had a variety of 'special' awards:
Keep Plugging Away Award is given to a team who might be trying to over come some difficulties in training as a reminder to never give up!
Gundog Snap Award is named after the gundog breeds (GSP's etc) as they are known to sometimes lose their mind on course and you never know what is going to happen. Therefore this award given to a team who do something that makes everyone laugh at a trial. Over the years we have seen it been awarded to dogs who refuse to come off obstacles, chase birds on course or even go under not over jumps just to name a few!
Look on the images below to see individual years!
Gold Cup:
The Gold Cup is award to a dog/handler team of ADC who has made an outstanding contribution to agility both at club, state and/or national level. It is not awarded every year and can only be achieved once in a dogs life time.

Agility Champions:
Obtaining your Agility Championship is the highest title given to any dog in agility. This means they have obtained their novice, excellent and master titles in both Jumping and Agility as well as earning 500 points in both Agility and Jumping. Points are obtained by having a clear run, extra points are given to 1st, 2nd and 3rd places.
Prior to 2011 dogs competed for their championship against all heights, meaning it was harder to obtain. These days it goes against your dogs height which they compete.
Congratulations to the following ADC teams who have achieved their Agility Championship!
