Anyone can host a competition in any area > the Derby series is not exclusive to any club or organization, and no memberships are required. If you would like to host a Derby either as a stand alone event or in conjunction with a disc event you are already hosting, please contact rowdydiscdog@yahoo.com for an application/sanction form. Once your Derby is booked it will be
posted on the Southern Ontario Disc Houndz website and also on the Canadian Disc Dog Derby site so that other potential hosts & competitors will know when/where the Derby’s are being held.
The Derby season starts with the first Derby offered in any given year, and ends in October of that year. All sanctioned Derby’s must be held between January and October of any given year and all Derby records/fees must be received by the Derby Director before October 31st of the current Derby year, in order to qualify for inclusion in the Derby Results.
In order to host a Disc Dog Derby you must have a long enough field to accomodate a furthest catch contest. A minimum length of 120ft is suggested, unless of course you know that you will have handlers who throw further than 120ft, in which case a long enough field to accomodate your anticipated longest thrower will be necessary.
The Canadian Disc Dog Derby will supply you with 20 score sheets and you may make extra copies if your entries exceed 20 competitors. You will also be supplied with Award Certificates for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners. All score sheets & DDD fees MUST be submitted to the Canadian Disc Dog Derby director within 2wks following your contest. The Canadian Disc Dog Derby fee is $10 per dog/handler team. Disc Dog Derby hosts may charge a fee over and above the DDD fee guideline, to offset their expenses.
