Games of the Petit Prix Part 1 ~ Puppy Cannon

In preparation for the TDAA’s 2013 Petit Prix on this blog, over the next few days, I hope to give a comprehensive discussion of each of the games scheduled for that championship competition.

At the same time we’ll be having a robust round-table discussion on the TDAA Judges’List on Yahoo so that our judges can share they experience and expertise in the design and play of these games. Of course that discussion won’t be limited to the Games of the Petit Prix.

Now… the documentation below comes right out of the Book of Agility Games. I will be sure to share any possible enhancements to the basic rules that arise from our discussions on the Yahoo List.

Note that I’ve made additional comments to the text; these will be presented in bold blue type.

Puppy Cannon!

Puppy Cannon is a fast and furious game of handling, often used as a training game but suitable as a game of competition for top competitors.

Briefing

The objective of this game is for the dog to do all three of the numbered sequences shown on the course map. The sequences can be taken in any order, and in either direction. The dog starts on the table and must begin with the pipe tunnel (the Puppy Cannon) and return to the pipe tunnel after the performance of each of the three sequences.

The judge may specify that certain sequences are bi-directional.

After the performance of the final pipe tunnel, the dog must be directed back to the table to stop time.

Scoring

Scoring for Puppy Cannon is Time, Plus Faults. The dog with the lowest score wins.

Course Design

 

In many ways the design of Puppy Cannon resembles Beat the Clock, except that the central obstacle is a pipe tunnel, rather than a tire. The featured tunnel should be straight and aimed, like a cannon, at some obstacle (which may or may not be the next correct obstacle).

In the design of this sample course two other pipe tunnels are engaged… aiming at wrong course obstacles; but with sufficient room for the handler to turn the dog towards the next correct obstacle.

On this course the judge specifies that the white-numbered sequences are bi‑directional.

Note that the table is the starting obstacle on this course. This should not be viewed as a constraint. The judge might use any beginning obstacle.

Design Analysis

Note that the spacing between obstacles might seem more generous than you might see in typical TDAA sequencing our course work. These distances are consistent with our course design guidelines. While wrong course “options” are central to the intent of the game, we require a minimum of 12‘ for the avoidance of a wrong course option.

The sample course includes two tunnels that aren’t central to the game (like the tire in Beat the Clock). They both are set very intentionally to introduce the possibility of the wrong course option. While the exhibitor may be giving his best focus to the central tunnel… these too should come into play.

The handling sequences might be more challenging than was portrayed here. However, we don’t want to get far from the main premise of the game… to challenge handlers to demonstrate their ability to direct the dog when shot out of a tunnel. And so any peripheral handling challenges should not overwhelm the basic challenge of the game.

Please note that the final game at the Petit Prix will be Black Hole. This is a really basic follow-the-numbers sequencing game that has the cruel twist… if a dog goes into a pipe tunnel he is immediately eliminated… and the game ends. At this year’s Petit Prix it could prove to be exceptionally challenging, so immediately following a game in which the dog is directed to dive into every pipe tunnel that offers itself.

Judging Notes

Dogs should be judged according to their respective level in the standard classes. That means, when appropriate, refusals and weave pole errors should be faulted.

In briefing the judge should be very clear on several points:

• After the start the dog must be directed to the central pipe tunnel
• After each sequence the dog must be directed to the central pipe tunnel
• The three sequences can be taken in whatever order the handler desires
• Which, if any, sequences are bi-directional
• The dog must be directed to the finishing obstacle after the final performance of the central pipe tunnel.

The judge should offer neither handling advice nor strategy advice to exhibitors in briefing.

Qualifying and Titles

Qualifying Course Time (QCT) is based on the measured length of the overall course using rates of travel appropriate to each dog’s level and jump height. After faults have been added to time if the score is equal to or less than the established QCT, then the dog shall receive a qualifying score.

Variations

Original ~ Puppy Cannon was originally envisioned simply as a training game; mostly to demonstrate that turning the dog on the dismount of a pipe tunnel could be quite a trick of handling. In this variation there is no established course time.

Premium Blurb

Puppy Cannon is a game featuring the pipe tunnel as a test of the handler’s skill when redirecting the dog. It is typically played with three (or more) small numbered sequences that can be taken in the order of the handler’s choosing. Puppy Cannon is scored Time, Plus Faults.

Quidditch Design Tutorial

For a moment, let’s make this a tutorial on the design of a Quidditch course. This is an obscure study… which is to say, there’s like 3 guys in the whole world worrying over the matter (and I’m not really sure who the other two are).

Here’s a rare look at the course review process. This is all based on a game that was submitted for review. I’ve carefully redacted the review to remove the cuss words. The game under review is Quidditch.

I rarely get involved in the design process; this game and course being an exception. There was some sense of urgency. Because this game was for the Petit Prix and the judges had like eight months to prepare for it… naturally we were still working on the courses at the last minute, while the club was screaming for the courses so they could send their exhibitor catalogs to the printer.

Your course feels cluttered to me… and I want to fix that. I suggested bringing the containment down to 8′ because there wasn’t room for the handler to set up for the beater; but after shrinking the containment… you also crowded the sequences against the line; once again taking away important handling room. First step in uncluttering… is to move stuff away from the beater.

Beginning with the lower/right sequence I’m going to rotate it around. And I’ve changed the sequence slightly; thinking ahead, I want a nice opportunity for a bludger on the dismount of the sequence which wasn’t really possible with the #4 jump crowded against the containment. So the #4 jump goes away.

I’ve also rotated the tire for the approach. It’s really difficult to design everything for a natural approach to the tire in this game. But we’ll really try as we go along.

Btw, since you’ve gone to four sequences rather than the traditional three… it allows us to name the four sequences after the four houses of Hogwart. That can be a nice touch.

On the Ravenclaw sequence I’ve pretty much preserved the original challenge. I’ve backed everything a tiny bit off the beater containment. Note now that swapping the weave poles for the pipe tunnel makes the pipe tunnel a for real bludger opportunity after the Ravenclaw sequence. And, the #1/#4 jump in Ravenclaw is a bludger opportunity after the Griffindor sequence.

I really changed your Slytherin sequence. First, I altered the colors of the numbers. All that black stuff up there added to the clutter. I took the A-frame out for a couple reasons, not the least of which is that it would trap the judge at the back of the ring, to get a view of the contact, yelling out numbers to a scribe at a distance.

In the design we continue to watch for a nice square flowing approach to the beater. This design once again introduces a bludger after the #5 jump of the Slytherin sequence.

I’ve changed your Hufflepuff sequence just a bit. By reversing the direction of the wrap it allows for a square approach to the beater (which I had rotated early on). Also… the #1 jump in the sequence serves as a bludger on the approach to the beater. I like the balance of that. Note that all of the sequences now have bludger challenges without ever actually using a dummy jump.

In a final adjustment I changed the position of the table and rotated the start line so that there’s a choice of either Hufflepuff or Gryffindor as the starting sequence. You know, if I had wanted to I could have run the start line from the vicinity of the table to the upper right corner of the course. That would have allowed the exhibitor to start on any one of the four sequences. I might be tempted to do something like that at some small regional trial. But at the Petit Prix it would be a drag on efficient ring administration.

The next bit we really need to attend to is checking whether the Qualifying Course Time (QCT) that you established falls within the rates of travel standards for all dogs. As you can see, I measured this course at around 100 yards. And you established, in your briefing 60 seconds for big dogs, and 65 seconds for small dogs.

I ran the 100 yard estimate through my Rates of Travel calculator using a mid-range rate of travel, and came up with these interesting numbers:

	Games I	4″ / 8 “	71
		12′′ / 16′′	67
	Games II	4″ / 8 “	63
		12′′ / 16′′	57
	Games III	4″ / 8 “	50
		12′′ / 16′′	47

We really aren’t so interested in GI and GII for the Petit Prix… everybody competes at the Superior/GIII level. The calculated times for GII, however, suggest that you might want to toughen up on the QCT. At a minimum you make it 55/60; but you could toughen it up to 50/55. Note that I did not bother to include Slytherin in the measured calculation. In the strategy of the game the handler must decide whether to risk the Golden Snitch (75 points) to steal another 100 points for Slytherin and beater. The faculty at Hotwarts will tell you, dealing with Slytherin house is a good way to get snake-bit.

* * *

Your briefing says “Each sequence can be successfully completed only once and only 3 sequences may be completed.” Oh, I really disagree. You put four out there… you really should take the opportunity to entice the greedy. Remember, there are old pilots, and there are bold pilots. But there are no old bold pilots.

Your briefing says “If a team completes or attempts one sequence more than once the final score for the team will be zero.” This is from the original rules. It makes you wonder… why would anybody want to do that? That being said… I’ve seen a handler repeat a sequence with her dog because she thought that her dog’s fault of the beater actually faulted the sequence which preceded it. So I’m thinking… setting the score to zero is a terrible punishment for not completely understanding play of the game. And you would feel awful if that exhibitor went out to the parking lot and shot herself. So, we should soften this rule to say “If a team completes a sequence more than once the second performance will earn no points.”

Quidditch

Briefing

Big dogs will have 55 seconds and small dogs 60 seconds to complete at least three numbered sequences. When time expires the dog must be directed to the table to stop time. The point values for each of the sequences are 15, 20, and 25 points. Each sequence can be successfully completed only once; but all four sequences may be completed.

Each obstacle has individual point values that are earned by a team if a sequence is only partially completed prior to time expiring.

• 1 point for jumps

• 3 points for tunnels

• 5 points for contact obstacles and weave poles

Upon successful completion of a sequence the dog can earn bonus points for a successful performance of a tire; the ‘Beater’ bonus, for which the team will earn an additional 25 points if the tire is performed from behind the containment line. Refusals will be faulted on the tire, but nowhere else on course. The initial direction of the dog’s approach to the tire will define the run-out plane of the obstacle for the purpose of judging refusals. If a dog commits a refusal on the tire, the Beater bonus is lost. If the handler faults the containment line, the Beater bonus is lost.

After attempting the Beater bonus the team should attempt another sequence. If the team completes three different sequences they will earn a ‘Keeper’ bonus of 50 points. Note: the bonus points earned or missed by the completion of the tire do not affect ability for a team to earn the Keeper bonus.

A dropped bar, some off-courses (see wrong course rule, below) or a missed contact will be considered a sequence fault. The team can immediately reattempt the same sequence or move to another sequence.

When time expires no new points can be earned.

The Bludgers Rule

1. A Bludger (wrong course obstacle) performed during the performance of an individual sequence shall result in a sequence fault. No points are earned for the performance of any individual obstacle unless the sequence is not completed due to expiration of time.
2. Performance of a Bludger after the successful completion of a sequence on the way to the Beater (tire) shall be considered a fault of the Beater. The ability for the team to earn the Beater bonus is lost. The team should proceed to the next sequence, or to the table if appropriate.
3. If the wrong course occurs: Bludgers (wrong courses) shall not be faulted: between the starting line and the first obstacle of a numbered sequence; between the Beater and the first obstacle of a numbered sequence; between the Beater and the table (to stop time).
4. No points shall be earned for the performance of any Bludger.

Expiration of Time

If the whistle sounds prior to the completion of the three sequences, the dog should be directed to the table. The team will earn individual points for obstacles completed prior to the sounding of the whistle. When the dog touches the table, time will stop. No table performance is required.

The Golden Snitch

If a team successfully completes all three sequences, earns all three 25 point Beater bonuses, and touches the table prior to the 60 or 65-second whistle sounding, the team will earn the Golden Snitch bonus of 75 points.

Scoring

Quidditch is scored Points, Then Time. The dog with the most points wins. In the case of a tie, the dog with the shortest time will be the winner.

A perfect score requires completion of all three sequences and successful performance of the Beater bonus. The scoring notation would look like this: 15-25-20-25-25-25-50-75.

Qualifying

• Games I: 55 points

• Games II: 75 points

• Games III: 95 points

Power & Speed

Briefing

The Power & Speed course is split into two parts: the Power section which contains technical obstacles, and the Speed section made up only of jumps.

The Power section is not timed. The handler must direct the dog through the Power section of the course taking care not to fault any of the obstacles.  Faults earned in the Power section will be added to the team’s final score.

The Speed section is a timed course. The goal is to run the jumpers-style course as fast as possible. Faults we be added to the team’s score.

There will be a maximum course time of 2 minutes to complete both sections of the Power and Speed course.   Any team taking longer than the maximum time will be eliminated.

There will be a maximum course time of 2 minutes to complete both sections of the Power and Speed course.   Any team taking longer than the maximum time will be eliminated.

Scoring

Power and Speed is scored time plus faults. The team with the lowest score wins. The will be judged under TDAA Superior rules; (refusals on contact obstacles, for example are faulted).

Qualifying

The team will qualify if the dog’s score (time, plus faults) is less than or equal to the established Qualifying Course Times (QCT):

Games I	4″ / 8 “	37
	12′′ / 16′′	34
Games II	4″ / 8 “	32
	12′′ / 16′′	29
Games III	4″ / 8 “	26
	12′′ / 16′′	24

Call Direct & Send

Briefing

In Call, Direct and Send a handler must call, direct, and send his dog to perform three series of obstacles.

Call – The Call is a lead-off at the start line, requiring the handler to call the dog over the opening obstacles #1 and #2. To receive the bonus for this section of the course the dog should be placed on a wait or stay at the beginning of the course, behind the start line, while the handler leads out to a point on the course past the first containment line to call the dog.

Direct – The Direct is a mid-course gamble sequence of obstacles #9 through #11. To receive the bonus for this section of the course, the handler must direct the dog over the sequence of obstacles without crossing the containment line.

Send – The final sequence for the course is the Send over obstacles #16-#18. To receive the bonus for this section of the course, the handler must send the dog over the obstacles without crossing the containment line.

Faults and Bonuses

Faults shall be assessed according to the TDAA schedule of faults for standard courses. A 20-point fault will be assessed for each failure to perform. The four-paw safety rule will not be in effect for this game.

Each bonus is worth 10 points. No bonus will be given for any sequence in which the handler faults the containment line. The judge will call “Fault” to indicate the line has been faulted. The judge will call “Bonus” for each bonus sequence successfully performed.

Scoring

Call Direct & Send is scored Time, Plus Faults, Less Bonuses. The dog with the lowest score wins.

Qualifying

The dog qualifies so long as the total score is less than the Qualifying Course Time:

What’s My Line

Briefing

The objective of What’s My Line is to perform all of the obstacles on the field without repeating or omitting any as quickly as possible. The dog earns one point for each obstacle performed successfully. Each obstacle has the same value, regardless of the difficulty of performance and regardless of the number assigned to the obstacle.

If an obstacle is performed twice, the dog will lose a point for the performance.

If an obstacle is faulted, the team will receive no point for that obstacle. Further, the obstacle will be counted as used/completed. So the dog would earn an additional fault if the obstacle is repeated.

A four-paw commitment to a contact obstacle will commit the dog to the performance of that obstacle. Under this rule, if a dog commits to a contact obstacle with all four-paws, then bails off, he has committed to that obstacle. While the on-and-off refusal will not be faulted, the dog must be directed to finish the contact obstacle.

Time will be started and stopped when the dog crosses the start and finish lines. Note that the start finish lines run on two sides of the course. The team may start or finish anywhere along these lines. Small dog teams will have 60 seconds and Large Dog teams will have 55 seconds to complete the task.

Scoring

What’s My Line is scored Points, Then Time. Time is a tie-breaker only. The team with the most points will win.

Qualifying

Games 1: 10 points

Games 2: 11 points

Games 3: 12 points

Weakest Link

Briefing

The objective of Weakest Link is to score as many points as possible in the allotted time. Only “banked” points will count toward the final score. Small dogs have 65 seconds; big dogs have 60 seconds. Time starts when the dog crosses the start line.

Each obstacle taken by the dog must be worth as much as or more than the previous obstacle taken. The dog’s potential score will increase as each obstacle value is added to the overall total. The dog can’t keep or count on these points until they are “banked”. Obstacle point values are:

• Jumps, 2 points
• Tire or tunnels, 4 points
• Contact obstacles, 6 points
• Weave poles, 8 points
• Gamble #1 Square Numbers 1-4 – 22 points
• Gamble #2 Round Numbers 1-4 – 24 points

Points are banked when the dog performs the tire.  Banked points are kept secure toward the final score and cannot be lost. When points are banked, the potential points score is set to zero, and point accumulation begins again, to the expiration of time. Each sequence banked must be unique. That means there must be at least one difference from any sequence previously banked. Back-to-back obstacle performances are allowed.

If a dog faults any obstacle all potential points are lost. Banked points can never be taken away from the dog. Performance faults are based on Superior rules. In addition the dog shall be faulted for failing to bank points before the final whistle.

When a dog faults the judge will call “fault”. The handler is obligated to direct the dog to the first obstacle in a new sequence to earn potential points. The handler does not have to bank points before beginning again after a fault.

If the containment line in either gamble is faulted, the point value of the obstacles within the gamble are considered under their regular point value (see below). Otherwise, the entire gamble is considered as one obstacle worth 22 or 24 points, depending on the direction taken.

If a bar is dropped on a jump, that jump is out of play for the remainder of the game with the exception that a bar knocked within a gamble will be picked up or reset if possible. If not reset, the dog must be directed through the uprights of the jump in order to receive points for a successfully completed gamble.

Scoring

The Weakest Link is scored Points, Then Time. The dog with the most points is deemed the winner.

Qualifying

• Games I – 40 or more points
• Games II – 50 or more points

Games III – 60 or more points

Heinz 57

Briefing

The purpose of Heinz 57 is to score 57 points as quickly as possible, without going over or being under. Time starts when the dog crosses the start line. A total of 55 seconds will be allowed for small dogs; 50 seconds for big dogs.

Point Values are:

• 1 point for jumps
• 2 points for pipe tunnels and the tire
• 3 points for contact obstacles
• 5 points for weave poles
• The chute is the doubling obstacle and has no individual points

Obstacles can be taken twice for points; back-to-back performances are not allowed. Another obstacle must be performed before the dog can be redirected to an obstacle.

The collapsed chute is the doubling obstacle and can be taken at any time during the dog’s run but may only be taken twice, like any other obstacle. Successful completion of the doubling obstacle doubles ALL points earned to that point, including a previously doubled score.

If the dog touches the table at any time after earning at least one point scoring ends and the run is over.

TDAA rules will be used for performance faults. Any error must be fixed or the dog will not earn points for the obstacle. With the exception of jumps, if a dog commits to any obstacle he is required to complete the performance of that obstacle.

Scoring

Heinz 57 is scored points, then time. Any points over or under 57 will be subtracted from 57 for the dog’s final score.

Qualifying

At all levels, 57 points is required to qualify.

Quidditch

Briefing

Big dogs will have 55 seconds and small dogs 60 seconds to complete at least three numbered sequences. When time expires the dog must be directed to the table to stop time. The point values for each of the sequences are 15, 20, and 25 points. Each sequence can be successfully completed only once; but all four sequences may be completed.

Each obstacle has individual point values that are earned by a team if a sequence is only partially completed prior to time expiring.

• 1 point for jumps

• 3 points for tunnels

• 5 points for contact obstacles and weave poles

Upon successful completion of a sequence the dog can earn bonus points for a successful performance of a tire; the ‘Beater’ bonus, for which the team will earn an additional 25 points if the tire is performed from behind the containment line. Refusals will be faulted on the tire, but nowhere else on course. The initial direction of the dog’s approach to the tire will define the run-out plane of the obstacle for the purpose of judging refusals. If a dog commits a refusal on the tire, the Beater bonus is lost. If the handler faults the containment line, the Beater bonus is lost.

After attempting the Beater bonus the team should attempt another sequence. If the team completes three different sequences they will earn a ‘Keeper’ bonus of 50 points. Note: the bonus points earned or missed by the completion of the tire do not affect ability for a team to earn the Keeper bonus.

A dropped bar, some off-courses (see wrong course rule, below) or a missed contact will be considered a sequence fault. The team can immediately reattempt the same sequence or move to another sequence.

When time expires no new points can be earned.

The Bludgers Rule

1. A Bludger (wrong course obstacle) performed during the performance of an individual sequence shall result in a sequence fault. No points are earned for the performance of any individual obstacle unless the sequence is not completed due to expiration of time.
2. Performance of a Bludger after the successful completion of a sequence on the way to the Beater (tire) shall be considered a fault of the Beater. The ability for the team to earn the Beater bonus is lost. The team should proceed to the next sequence, or to the table if appropriate.
3. If the wrong course occurs: Bludgers (wrong courses) shall not be faulted: between the starting line and the first obstacle of a numbered sequence; between the Beater and the first obstacle of a numbered sequence; between the Beater and the table (to stop time).
4. No points shall be earned for the performance of any Bludger.

Expiration of Time

If the whistle sounds prior to the completion of the three sequences, the dog should be directed to the table. The team will earn individual points for obstacles completed prior to the sounding of the whistle. When the dog touches the table, time will stop. No table performance is required.

The Golden Snitch

If a team successfully completes all three sequences, earns all three 25 point Beater bonuses, and touches the table prior to the time whistle sounding, the team will earn the Golden Snitch bonus of 75 points.

Scoring

Quidditch is scored Points, Then Time. The dog with the most points wins. In the case of a tie, the dog with the shortest time will be the winner.

A perfect score requires completion of all three sequences and successful performance of the Beater bonus. The scoring notation would look like this: 15-25-20-25-25-25-50-75.

Qualifying

• Games I: 55 points

The Power and Speed course consists of two separate parts: Power contains technical obstacles and tunnels, and Speed section contains jumps and tunnels.

The Power section of the course is not timed.  The handler must direct the dog through the Power section of the course, with the goal being to complete the Power section without faulting any of the obstacles.  Faults earned in the Power section of the game will be added to the team’s final score.

The Speed section of the game is timed. The goal is to run the jumpers-style course as fast as possible. Faults we be added to the team’s score.

There will be a maximum course time of 2 minutes to complete both sections of the Power and Speed course.   Any team taking longer than the maximum time will be eliminated.

Scoring

Power and Speed is scored time plus faults. The team with the lowest score wins. The will be judged under TDAA Superior rules; (refusals on contact obstacles, for example are faulted).

Qualifying

The team will qualify if the dog’s score (time, plus faults) is less than or equal to the established Qualifying course times (QCT):

Games I	4″ / 8 “	40
	12′′ / 16′′	38
Games II	4″ / 8 “	35

Call Direct & Send

Briefing

In Call, Direct and Send a handler must call, direct, and send his dog to perform three series of obstacles.

Call – The Call is a lead-off at the start line, requiring the handler to call the dog over the opening obstacles #1 and #2. To receive the bonus for this section of the course the dog should be placed on a wait or stay at the beginning of the course, behind the start line, while the handler leads out to a point on the course past the first containment line to call the dog.

Direct – The Direct is a mid-course gamble sequence of obstacles #9 through #11. To receive the bonus for this section of the course, the handler must direct the dog over the sequence of obstacles without crossing the containment line.

Send – The final sequence for the course is the Send over obstacles #16-#18. To receive the bonus for this section of the course, the handler must send the dog over the obstacles without crossing the containment line.

Faults and Bonuses

Faults shall be assessed according to the TDAA schedule of faults for standard courses. A 20-point fault will be assessed for each failure to perform. The four-paw safety rule will not be in effect for this game.

Each bonus is worth 10 points. No bonus will be given for any sequence in which the handler faults the containment line. The judge will call “Fault” to indicate the line has been faulted. The judge will call “Bonus” for each bonus sequence successfully performed.

Scoring

The dog’s total time, plus faults earned on the course, minus bonuses earned, will determine the dog’s final score. The dog with the lowest score, regardless of other faults on the course, will be the winner.

Qualifying

The dog qualifies so long as the total score is less than the Qualifying Course Time (QCT), using rates of travel defined in the TDAA rules and regulations. QCT for this course shall be:

Games I	4″ / 8 “		53
	12′′ / 16′′		49
Games II	4″ / 8 “		35
	12′′ / 16′′		30

What’s My Line

Briefing

The objective of What’s My Line is to perform all of the obstacles on the field without repeating or omitting any. The dog earns one point for each obstacle performed successfully. Each obstacle has the same value, regardless of difficulty of performance or the number assigned to the obstacle.  Numbers are for the judge’s reference only, and in no way suggest a sequence for running the course.

If an obstacle is faulted, the dog will receive no point for that obstacle; and the obstacle considered completed.  If an obstacle is performed more than once the dog will lose a point for each additional performance.  If the dog commits to an obstacle with all four paws he is committed to that obstacle.

Time starts and stops at the start/finish line. 4 and 8 inch dogs will have 60 seconds and 12 and 16 inch dogs will have 55 seconds to collect points.

Scoring and Qualification

What’s My Line is scored Points, Then Time. Time is a tie-breaker only. The team with the most points will win.  To qualify the dog must earn 14 points.

Weakest Link

Briefing

The objective of The Weakest Link is to score as many points as possible in the allotted time. Only “banked” points will count toward the final score. Small dogs have 65 seconds; big dogs have 60 seconds. Time starts when the dog crosses the start line.

Each obstacle taken by the dog must be worth as much as or more than the previous obstacle taken. The dog’s potential score will increase as each obstacle value is added to the overall total. The dog can’t keep or count on these points until they are “banked”. Obstacle point values are:

·        Jumps, 2 points

·        Tire or tunnels, 4 points

·        Contact obstacles, 6 points

·        Weave poles, 8 points

·        Gamble #1 Square Numbers 1-4 – 22 points

·        Gamble #2 Round Numbers 1-4 – 24 points

Points are banked when the dog performs the tire.  Banked points are kept secure toward the final score and cannot be lost. When points are banked, the potential points score is set to zero, and point accumulation begins again, to the expiration of time. Each sequence banked must be unique. That means there must be at least one difference from any sequence previously banked. Back-to-back obstacle performances are allowed.

If a dog faults any obstacle all potential points are lost. Banked points can never be taken away from the dog. Performance faults are based on Superior rules. In addition the dog shall be faulted for failing to bank points before the final whistle.

When a dog faults the judge will call “fault”. The handler is obligated to direct the dog to the first obstacle in a new sequence to earn potential points. The handler does not have to bank points before beginning again after a fault.

If the containment line in either gamble is faulted, the point value of the obstacles within the gamble are considered under their regular point value (see below). Otherwise, the entire gamble is considered as one obstacle worth 22 or 24 points, depending on the direction taken.

If a bar is dropped on a jump, that jump is out of play for the remainder of the game with the exception that a bar knocked within a gamble will be picked up or reset if possible. If not reset, the dog must be directed through the uprights of the jump in order to receive points for a successfully completed gamble.

Scoring

The Weakest Link is scored Points, Then Time. The dog with the most points is deemed the winner.

Heinz 57

Briefing

The purpose of Heinz 57 is to score 57 points as quickly as possible, without going over or being under 57 points.

Time starts when the dog crosses the start line. 55 seconds will be allowed for small dogs, 50 seconds for big dogs.

Point Values are:

• 1 point for jumps
• 2 points for pipe tunnels and the tire
• 3 points for contact obstacles
• 5 points for weave poles
• The chute is the doubling obstacle and has no individual points

Obstacles can be taken twice for points; back-to-back performances are not allowed.

Another obstacle must be performed before the dog can be redirected to an obstacle.

The collapsed chute is the doubling obstacle and can be taken at any time during the dog’s run but may only be taken twice, like any other obstacle. Successful completion of the doubling obstacle doubles ALL points earned to that point, including a previously doubled score.

If the dog touches the table at any time after earning at least one point scoring ends and the run is over.

TDAA rules will be used for performance faults. Any error must be fixed or the dog will not earn points for the obstacle. With the exception of jumps, if a dog commits to any obstacle he is required to reattempt that obstacle until it is not faulted. No new points will be awarded until that obstacle has been performed.

Scoring

Heinz 57 is scored points, then time. Any points over or under 57 will be subtracted from 57 for the dog’s final score.

Qualifying

At all levels, 57 points is required to qualify.

Quidditch

Briefing

Big dogs will have 55 seconds and small dogs 60 seconds to complete at least three numbered sequences. When time expires the dog must be directed to the table to stop time. The point values for each of the sequences are 15, 20, and 25 points. Each sequence can be successfully completed only once; but all four sequences may be completed.

Each obstacle has individual point values that are earned by a team if a sequence is only partially completed prior to time expiring.

• 1 point for jumps

• 3 points for tunnels

• 5 points for contact obstacles and weave poles

Upon successful completion of a sequence the dog can earn bonus points for a successful performance of a tire; the ‘Beater’ bonus, for which the team will earn an additional 25 points if the tire is performed from behind the containment line. Refusals will be faulted on the tire, but nowhere else on course. The initial direction of the dog’s approach to the tire will define the run-out plane of the obstacle for the purpose of judging refusals. If a dog commits a refusal on the tire, the Beater bonus is lost. If the handler faults the containment line, the Beater bonus is lost.

After attempting the Beater bonus the team should attempt another sequence. If the team completes three different sequences they will earn a ‘Keeper’ bonus of 50 points. Note: the bonus points earned or missed by the completion of the tire do not affect ability for a team to earn the Keeper bonus.

A dropped bar, some off-courses (see wrong course rule, below) or a missed contact will be considered a sequence fault. The team can immediately reattempt the same sequence or move to another sequence.

When time expires no new points can be earned.

The Bludgers Rule

1. A Bludger (wrong course obstacle) performed during the performance of an individual sequence shall result in a sequence fault. No points are earned for the performance of any individual obstacle unless the sequence is not completed due to expiration of time.
2. Performance of a Bludger after the successful completion of a sequence on the way to the Beater (tire) shall be considered a fault of the Beater. The ability for the team to earn the Beater bonus is lost. The team should proceed to the next sequence, or to the table if appropriate.
3. If the wrong course occurs: Bludgers (wrong courses) shall not be faulted: between the starting line and the first obstacle of a numbered sequence; between the Beater and the first obstacle of a numbered sequence; between the Beater and the table (to stop time).
4. No points shall be earned for the performance of any Bludger.

Expiration of Time

If the whistle sounds prior to the completion of the three sequences, the dog should be directed to the table. The team will earn individual points for obstacles completed prior to the sounding of the whistle. When the dog touches the table, time will stop. No table performance is required.

The Golden Snitch

If a team successfully completes all three sequences, earns all three 25 point Beater bonuses, and touches the table prior to the time whistle sounding, the team will earn the Golden Snitch bonus of 75 points.

Scoring

Quidditch is scored Points, Then Time. The dog with the most points wins. In the case of a tie, the dog with the shortest time will be the winner.

A perfect score requires completion of all three sequences and successful performance of the Beater bonus. The scoring notation would look like this: 15-25-20-25-25-25-50-75.

Qualifying

• Games I: 55 points

• Games II: 75 points

• Games III: 95 points

Jumpers

Briefing

The Jumpers course consists of a series of jumps and tunnels that should be completed in numeric order, hopefully with no faults.  Faults will be added to the teams score.  To qualify the team’s total score must be equal to or less than the QCT set by the judge.   Jumpers is scored time plus faults the team with the lowest score win’s.

Thanks to Small Paws Over Texas and the many volunteers from that part of the world for their hard work and gracious hospitality. The Western regional Petit Prix as a memorable event!

Petit Prix Results ~ Eastern Region

The tournament in Latrobe was amazing, fun and intense. Over three days all dogs competed in ten games and courses, accumulating points for placement against the field; game, by game.

The final round was Jumpers, a fast and only slightly technical romp to determine the field of winners.

The final 40 dogs were placed by tournament rules. The winner of each jump height earned the Teacup National Agility Champion (TNAC) title.

The Champions’ Vest

We decided this year that the top 40 players at each Petit Prix should win commemorative apparel. We settled on a high-quality fleece vest that is American made. Marsha and I both are huge advocates of buying American products[1] whenever we have the choice.

How the vests will be awarded put us momentarily into a quandary. In the final round of the Petit Prix the top 40 players will be set aside to run last, by jump height, in showcase fashion. The difficulty is that, after the dust settles, it’s possible that the 40 players on the floor will not own the top 40 scores. Remember that this is a new format for the Petit Prix; every player will play every game and earn placement points against the field.

What we’ve decided on is this… the Champions’ Vests will not be given out before the showcase round. They will be given to the top 40 winners after all dogs have run, as part of the awards ceremony.

The vests will be royal blue with this embroidered emblem:

In case you are wondering there will be only one vest to an individual handler, regardless of how many dogs that handler placed in the top 40 dogs.
