Easter Venue

The Easter venue is a new one, and is so much more than just a field to play with your dogs in.

We're trying to arrange discounted entry into the house and gardens area for those of you that like to do the tourist thing.
You can see more at www.newbyhall.com

Easter 2025

Right then, I finally got my finger out and finished the Easter schedule. It is now with the processor for checking and uploading.

All being well, the show will be open for entries tomorrow, Friday the 17th.

You can enter online at www.agilityplaza.com

As always, the camping will go onto a waiting list that we'll keep on top of. We've done a discounted block rate for those of you that want to camp for all six nights.

There are the usual array of qualifiers if you fancy a chance to win some money in the finals.

We have a new caterer this year. We've been lucky enough to secure the services of The Curry Box. It's just a name, they do much more than curry. They come extremely highly recommended and will be doing all of the shows with the exception of August, as they're seriously busy then. We're still looking for a quality caterer for that one.

The luxury showers will be with us. We're on a generator for this show so as long as you can hear it running you can have a hot shower.

Speaking of the generator, there will probably be a few unused hook-up pitches available. If you're interested email us at [email protected]

Pawstrading Ltd will be with us so save your Christmas pennies and hand them over to Mr TikTok in exchange for some quality merchandise.

We will have some high speed wifi access available too. If you want connected pop into the marquee and speak to Kenny.

The "Norton Rosettes" Steeplechase Showdown Final

We are delighted to announce that this year the lovely people at Norton Rosettes are sponsoring the Steeplechase Showdown final.

There is no change to qualification rules or prize money, and the league table that is currently running will continue.

Norton Rosettes will be generously providing the rosettes and trophies for the top three dogs in the final and the rest of you who qualified and ran in the final will receive a finalist rosette.
