European Open – Team Competition
A Team in the height category Large consists of a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 4 handler and dog teams. A Team in the height category Medium/Small consists of a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 4 handler and dog teams, whereby the composition of Small and Medium dogs is not prescribed.
Mixed Country Teams may also compete (one Team composed of handler and dogs from different countries).
In the Team Event one Agility round and one Jumping round will be run as qualification for the EO Team Final.
For each round competitors will be ranked according to faults and time. The first placed handler and dog will receive points according to the number of competitors in that round (= number of Teams x 4), the second placed handler and dog team will receive one point less, the third placed team 2 points less and so on. A disqualification receives 0 points.
The points of the 3 best runs of each Team will count towards the Team result for both rounds (= sum of points received). The 10 Teams with the highest point score after both rounds in the category Large and the category Small/Medium will be qualified for the EO Team Final. In the case of a tie, the points of the 4th Team member will be taken into consideration. In case of a further tie the highest Individual score will count.
The EO Team Final is a relay race where 4 separate courses are built in one Agility ring, partly using shared obstacles. The time is started when the dog of the 1st Team member passes his starting line and stopped when the dog of the 4th Team member passes his finish line. The 10 Teams start in reverse order of the
qualification score, so the best Team in the qualification will run last at the Final. If a Team with only 3 members is qualified for the Final one member of this Team has to run twice.
The winners of the Final will be the “European Open – Team Winner 2011” in the category Large and the category Small/Medium.
Deixem la ver se eu percebi bem isto ......porque acho que ainda ninguém viu bem esta historia !!!
Temos equipas de 3 ou de 4 duplas
Cada equipa faz uma prova de Jumping e de Agility, e contam as 3 melhores pontuações de cada equipa para uma classificação.
Agora começa a inovação !!!
As 10 melhores equipas da classificação final vão a final de equipas.
A final de equipas, e num único ringue mas este ringue é composto por 4 percursos, sendo que os obstáculos podem ser repetidos nos 4 percursos.
Cada uma das 4 duplas que passou a final vai fazer 1 dos percursos, no caso de equipas que têm 3 duplas uma das duplas vai ter de fazer 2 percursos.
E ..... porque isto não acaba aqui!!!
O tempo começa quando a 1º dupla começa e acaba quando a 4 dupla faz o ultimo salto.
Agora estou confuso .....
E os Midi/Mini , como é que fazem ???
Porque pelo que percebi vão correr todos de seguida sem paragens ... estou um pouco perdido !!
Pessoal o que acham ??
Just Agility
