COONABIDGEE EXTRAS CLOSES TUE 17/6/25 10AM!

Rosettes/Sponsorship 

The prices reflect the cost of rosettes/sashes items and so sponsorship allows us to continue to have them on offer so that we can divert those funds towards venue hire costs, hire loos, equipment servicing/parts and toward our interstate judged events.
Please select which rosettes/ sashes or sponsorship you would like. If they have already been allocated then they will be shaded indicating already taken/unavailable. 
Best In Field has $40 Show manager voucher and High in Trial has a $70 Show manager voucher. 

The club appreciates your generosity and all sponsors will be acknowledged in the catalogue.

With Appreciation,

WCWA Committee

Try-out/Puppy Runs

These will be offered as a separate activity at the same venue as our Official Trial open to all breeds ONLY ON SAT

Dogs must be a minimum of 5mths -15mths for Puppy Part Runs and Adult Runs are 15months+

Your entry includes 1 Run. Runs commence at the conclusion of the Official Trial, please check in with the Trial Secretary for numbers and briefing.

PLEASE NOTE: ALL BITCHES WILL BE VETTED. A BITCH IN SEASON MAY NOT RUN THE COURSE.

Each dog will be allocated a maximum of 10 minutes for assistance. The Lure Operator, Huntmaster and Trainer will be available to assist and advise as required. Dogs may attempt part or full course runs. Off-field assistance is available to learn the best way to release and retrieve your dog, and to answer questions.

"Puppy Runs" are assisted runs for puppies aged between 6 & up to 15 months. Such dogs are not physically mature enough to attempt a full course.

Puppy Runs will be conducted at the same time as the other try outs, however puppies will only be able to attempt part of the course, with the aim of seeing if the puppy has the instinct to chase the bags. These runs will generally only include a straight line and an open corner to minimize the impact on their bodies and help protect their developing joints.

Lure Coursing uses a loud engine to drive the bags around the course and pulleys on the field. Some puppies can be overwhelmed by this, which can have an impact on their willingness to course in the future. If in the opinion of the WCWA field team your puppy is showing signs of stress you will be advised to take your puppy off the field for its well being.

Please note: Puppies under the age of 5 months are not eligible for puppy runs. Dogs under the age of 15 months will be deemed a puppy and will only run a shortened course. 

All dogs must be securely contained in a crate or vehicle. Dogs that escape and interfere with a dog on course will be refused any further participation at the meet. You are legally responsible  for your dog’s actions, please ensure they are under control at all times. 
Please ensure you have water for your dog for after their run. 

Lure Coursing is very demanding on your dog's physical fitness. To avoid injury or illness, dogs which are in the opinion of WCWA officials, unfit to participate on the basis of weight or soundness, may be refused participation on the day. All dogs attending must be up to date with vaccinations. Entering  this event/activity is at your own risk and by entering, you agree to void any legal claims against the club, Dogswest and property owners regarding injury to your person, property and dog/s.

REFUNDS WILL NOT BE GIVEN.

As the majority of persons staying are adults , those with children must anticipate that the camp is likely to be up until later in the evening and persons may be in a more relaxed state and so carefullly decide whether this private campsite is appropriate for their family to stay.
