Flyball is a fast, fun team relay sport for dogs and their families.  It's a great outlet for high energy dogs!  The flyball course consists of 4 hurdles set 10 feet apart and a mechanical ball launching flyball box.  Dogs race one at a time over the hurdles and trigger the flyball box.  The flyball box shoots out a ball, the dog catches it and runs back over the hurdles with the ball.  When the dog crosses the start/finish line the next dog on the team takes his turn. 

Teams compete against other teams of equal abilities.  All dogs, including pure breeds, mixes and small dogs are eligible to compete and earn flyball titles.  Sanctioned NAFA and U-FLI flyball tournaments are held throughout the year all over North America.  Flyball is also popular in other countries.
