JET SET BLAST INTO SPRING TOURNAMENT

 

 

 

 

 

WELCOME!! to Jet Set’s Blast Into Spring Flyball Tournament.  It is being run as one (1) two-day unlimited tournament with 27 regular teams and 16 multi-breed teams in 2 rings. Ring 1 will have Reg. 1 & 4 and Multi. 1 & 3. Ring 2 will have Reg. 2, 3, & 5 and Multi 2. Ring 2 will take priority and should never be held up. Please advise the judge or head table in ring 1 of any conflicts your team may have. Remember no warm-ups may start until both teams have arrived to race. We will go over the traffic flow on entry and exit to the racing lanes at the captains meeting.  Please observe them to keep things flowing. Ribbons and dog toys for 1st through 3rd places will be given for division winners. Please sign up any dogs who will earn NAFA titles during the weekend on our posted sheet. This year we will be giving title ribbons to each dog who earned them at our tournament. Thanks for all of your entries – We look forward to some fantastic racing. We are having two rings which will provide over 60 ft. of runback. Racing will be 40 heats for each team. You will find a seeding chart, format, and racing schedules for Saturday and Sunday, along with directions to the tournament site on our website http://www.jetsetflyball.com . If anyone has any suggestions or complaints, please see any Jet Set members for assistance.

 

NAFA C-2 score sheets will be filled out with race schedules pre-printed. They will consist of two pages for each team. If you are using stickers be sure to bring one for each sheet. Please do not bring entire C-2 sheets as our sheets have the races pre-printed. Also we will be looking for box judge volunteers for each race as this method seems to be the norm in our regions now. If you see an empty judge chair, jump in there.

 

Scoring:

All divisions will score 1 point per heat + 1 point per win (1/2 point for a tie and 0 for a loss)

Ties for tournament placement will be decided by: First - win/loss record on head to heads between the two teams and then if still a tie, Second - fastest time run when racing head to head between the two teams.

 

The tournament will be held in an indoor soccer facility at the Blast in York, Pa. located along I-83 just North of the city. The building is fully air-conditioned. The facility will NOT be open for crating set-up Friday. Due to the turf field being in use until 9:00PM Friday night you may drop off boxes but must set up crate areas Sat. morning. There should be plenty of room for crating (it will not be assigned) however we reserve the right to limit any club who takes too much room. There is parking for campers on-site overnight with no hook-ups or electric. There is also no fee. All campers are required to park in the rear of the parking lot. All indoor crating areas must have the floor covered with waterproof matting or tarps. Any outside crating may be set up in the grass fields outside. The outside has grass areas that must be kept clean as usual; bags and containers will be provided. Please don’t allow dogs to urinate on the shrubbery outside the front of the building.
