This thread will be used for general chat related to Flyball and anything news related in regards to Flyball as well! Feel free to ask questions or anything here! It's for everyone to use, not just me! Flyball starts TODAY! I am super excited, and I hope everyone else is too! Today I will be randomly assigning teams who will play eachother by using the spin wheel! I'll post the results here, then start making the team threads. As soon as your threads have been created, you can get your entries in! As soon as both teams have posted, I can post results! If you haven't signed up for Flyball yet, you can do so HERE. After you've signed up, you'll need to go sign your team/s up HERE. You can sign up for Flyball any time! Your team will be assigned a team to run with in the next team assignments!

I have updated the Flyball information thread so now all petz are allowed and welcome in Flyball trials!
Dogz, Catz, Wildz, or a mixture of all 3 can make up your flyball team!
I also edited the titles so instead of a D for dog, it's now a P for pet.
Titles are now;
20 Points - FbP (Flyball Pet) 100 points - FbPX (Flyball Pet Excellent) 500 Points - FbPCh (Flyball Pet Champion)
Now... go get you and your teams signed up, let's have some fun!

Battle of the Borders lol
My team wasn't the best today haha. Wiccan decided he did not care for the hoop at all, Merav was super quick actually but then decided to take a victory lap and I had trouble catching her, Ready kept pawing at the hoop and Camden was a doll, he did so well!

Yes! Lol, Funny how that worked out!
My team had a few things happen too. Macaron thought we were playing fetch and Willow kept pawing the jump and such.
We have our very first trial completed and I will try an post results today if I have time!
Thank you Nightwish!

We've had our second run completed! Congratulations to Abby and her team, Society Starz on bringing home their first Blue Ribbon!
I've changed the name of our Team Database to: Flyball Leaderboard so we can see which teams are in the lead with their first place's. I had to add another column to the beginning which is marked with L and it is only used so I can easily sort everything in the right order. Since Abby and I are currently tied, we both have an A so we show up at the top. Letters will change depending on where we are in the list.
I thought this would add an extra fun challenge to the sport, and remember, it's all just for fun!
I also wanted to do a quick check in with everyone who competed in the first flyball runs;
1. Did you find this fun?
2. Was it easy enough to do / not confusing?
3. Are you excited for your next run?
4. Is there anything you think needs changed?
---
If you could copy / paste those into a post below and let me know your thoughts! I want to make these as fun as I can for everyone!
---
I am making a change to the Information thread;
Old - If a team fails to enter, no first place will be given and only points will be awarded.
New - If a team fails to get their entry posted by the deadline listed in the thread, I will post one of my backup team in their place.
---
ALSO! I Completely forgot to award the bonus 10 points to the first place teams so I will add those in now!
EDIT-
I feel like 10 points might be a bit much for bonus points and have lowered it to 5.
Old - Fastest team times will take 1st place earning your team an extra 10 points (per pet) and a blue ribbon.
New - Fastest team times will take 1st place earning your team an extra 5 points (per pet) and a blue ribbon.
^ If you feel like it should stay at 10, please let me know and I'll change it back.

We've had our third and final run completed! Congratulations to Meomi and their team, Powerful Pink on bringing home their first blue ribbon and a whopping 10 points per dog! This concludes this week's Flyball competition! -Results-Run #1 - Maplewood's Flying Collies VS Fly to Come Bye Run #2 - Maplewood's Dip N Dash VS Society StarzRun #3 - Diamond Dogz VS Powerful PinkCongrats everyone! All points have been updated in our databases! CHANGES- The time you post will be the time used, so be sure to stop your timer after your last dog jumps through the hoop with the ball! Don't worry about putting them away! - Since GIF's and Images are being super finicky for some reason (they keep breaking), Video is now preferred! If you can't do video, you can still do the others, but be sure to keep them on your computer in case they break on the forum and need re-uploaded or sent to me for judging. - I have created a new sign up sheet for this next week's runs! Be sure to sign up if you want your team to run again! I hope everyone had fun! I definitely did and am excited for next week!

I just remembered Mandi hexed a Flyball jump a long while back! Happy to see it's still available! purplehayeskennelz.weebly.com/downloads.html Feel free to use it instead of the hoop if you want! Be sure to delete the underscore between flyball and jump to get it to show up in your toy closet.

Yay! For Flyball Competition #2 we have a whopping 8 teams running! So exciting! Since we have so many teams entering, and an uneven number of winning teams from last competition, I'm not going to worry about winning teams running against each other for this week. I'm just going to assign teams like I did last time. However, if I get two teams that already raced against each other last week, I'll do a re-spin. Here we go... you ready!? Flyball Competition #2-Team Assignments- K9 Unit VS Fly to Come ByeOhmri's Powerful Pink VS AbbyPetz Society Starz (Edited, see post on pg 2) Diamond Dogz VS Maplewood's Mix N Match (Edited, see post on pg 2) Thor's Friendship is PFMagic VS Maplewood's Flying ColliesThreads have been created and linked above! HAVE FUN! Edit: I will turn the wheel into a video and post it here in a bit. Also! We did have issues with GIFs for the flyball trials last competition! Video or pictures is recommended over GIFs for this reason. PS> If, for any reason, you're not able to get your entry posted, please let me know and I'll use one of my back up teams in your team's place.
