Please find attached the results following the AGM 2023

Please accept our apologises in the delay in releasing this, the process to ensure the validity of each vote took longer than first anticipated. Across the board the committee have learned lessons in the process of handling the AGM which we look forward to utilising in streamlining the process when moving forward

With 24 hours to go before the EGM, the 5 Committee members that have chosen to respond to the allegations made about rule breaches and committee processes have still not had disclosure of what these alleged rule breaches might be. We are aware of concerns reagrling the handing of an investigation into Ardingly but we still remain unaware of what the specific allegations are. In the absence of any detailed information about what may be disussed at the EGM other than Ardingly, we sent the e-mail detailed below to the 4 members that put their names to the EGM submission.

After a very challenging few years I think it is safe to say flyball is definitley back! What a great 10 days of flyball at 3 Counties and Driffield showgrounds we have just had. Thanks to everyone who supported our 2 flagship events this year, the Indoor and Outdoor Championships, the attendance far exceeded our expectations and is a positive reflection of the healthy state of BFA flyball right now.

Rushing headlong into the main events at 3 Counties and Driffield showground over the next couple of weeks makes me wonder where the rest of the summer went! It's been really pleasing to see how much has been achieved by dogs and human members over the past few months. Together, we have successfully transitioned to the new wider jumps without any drama and we have a uniquely BFA ulna device with measurers trained and clubs able to purchase their own practice ones.

The summer flyball season is now well under way and it's been great to see so many handlers and dogs back out in the lanes. 1 June has now passed and some significant changes to our sport have now come into effect; changes that may well affect team line ups and seed times, which is why we have changed the AGM and rule change dates this year.

BFA Regional Champs 23-24 April 2022

Well, that was certainly a packed AGM this year, thanks to all those who stuck with it to the end, with such significant proposals to debate it was important that we gave them sufficient air time. It might have been the longest AGM in history but it was also attended by more of the membership than ever before with nearly 500 members logging in to listen and vote on the proposals - thanks so much for your engagement, it means a lot.

Wow, what a weekend of flyball that was at Crufts this year! With that excitement out of the way for another 12 months there's still loads of BFA flyball to look forward to and it's setting out to be a packed year ahead. In the run up to Easter there's a lot to get through to help shape how the BFA will look and operate this year. Committee elections and the AGM are both really important fixtures in the flyball calender and I hope you can find time to get engaged and help shape the future of your sport.
