This is a reminder to all conformation clubs regarding Chapter 10 in the Conformation Show Rules with respect to ring surfaces. This pertains to all rings relating to safety; however, in particular at indoor venues.
Safety at CKC events is paramount. Please ensure that ring surfaces are safe for the dogs and the exhibitors. Limited spacing should not take precedence of over safety.
Chapter 10, Rings, Facilities & Equipment
Section 10.2
“Surfaces of the judging rings must be flat, level and provide secure footing for the dogs and exhibitors.”
Clubs should consider double matting whenever possible and ensure that the matting is not too close to walls or arena boards.
It is the responsibility of the Show Superintendent to ensure that clubs are following the rules.
Thank you. We appreciate your assistance in this regard. |
