An exciting and successful weekend offered us over Whitsun our Agility Youth! After Jana, Jasmin and Jannik had qualified for the youth championship in Dingolfing at the WJJM, it was said in Bavaria: Keep your nerve! The entire team from Westphalia was able to show what they can do in 4 races. Unfortunately, Jasmin and Sky had bad luck in a single race and could not get into the classification. Jana and Emy won the jump on the last day, but unfortunately had two poles in the A-run too much, so both finished sixth. For Jannik and Lynn it was almost perfect in three races and with only one mistake they secured the title of Junior Champion A3 !! Congratulations :) In the team Westphalia reached place 2 in agility and 1 in IPO!

From our OG 3 teams took part in the small World Championships in Saarburg. Heinz Elpers and his Ondra from Eichendorffsiedlung won the A-run on Saturday, as well as jumping on Sunday. Unfortunately, this great result was not enough for the final. Also Josef and Lynn of the queen always had some bad luck and just missed the final run. Ina with Duke from Hasper Hammer made 2 clean runs in 2nd place on Saturday in the A2 and could compete in the final. Two mistakes went to her account in the last race, but she was a great performer. Winning the World Cup Sabine Matz with her Quinda, Kai Baker from our LG managed with Clementine 5 clean runs, including 4x 1st place and at the end of the runner-up title of the small World Cup!

Josef Kötting and Lynn von der Königin are taking part in the VDH DM in Leipzig this year, with a total of 4 teams competing with a DSH. In the first run, the two had a bit of bad luck, in jumping, both managed a flawless run with # 22 as the fastest German Shepherd 🙂

Ina and Duke from Hasper Hammer reached the first place in Bad Soden on the 1.10.17 and thus get into the A2! Jasmin Hanning with Gaja vom Ossenliet reach # 1 on our tournament in Gescher in A1 (ascent to A2)

Just barely missed our team the first place in the Bundesliga 2017 in Bad Soden. After absolutely sharp runs we were able to collect 600 out of 600 possible points in the playoff of the Bundesliga. All in all, we were able to finish 8 of 10 runs without any mistakes and only twice did we lose one pole. The two runs with errors could be counted as a strike result. Plus the 45 bonus points from the heats, we achieved an incredible result of 645 points !! Nevertheless, we were able to make the team from Ketsch the first place, also with 600 points, but 5 bonus points from the heats more, the team from Ketch reached 650 points and thus won the Bundesliga 2017.

Jannik and Flash are Vice World Champions 2017!
