Flyball
If
you've never come across flyball before, this video should explain it
for you.
[If
the playing is jerky, or stops, allow a little while for it to fully
load before you play it - best on Broadband]
Flyball
is a dog sport which involves a surprisingly large number of dogs from
Kellington. In July, 2003, eleven Kellington dogs spent a week holidaying
on the island of Anglesey, representing 3 different local teams, together
with around 350 other dogs from all over the country. A wonderful time
was had by all, despite the rain. There are currently 3 local teams
drawing dogs from Kellington, as there are now so many photos they each
now have their own page so that they load quickly.
Kellington's
Flyball Tournaments, held at Drax Power Station Social Club
As the 2005
outdoor season came to a close, the local teams all enjoyed a
wonderful weekend at Drax Power Station Social Club, taking part
in the first ever tournament organised by the Kellington Power
Racers, along with teams from all over the North of England. [Actually,
the Kellington team all worked so hard, that they might take a
day or two to realise how much they enjoyed it!]
The venue
was excellent, the spirit amongst those taking part was excellent
and the organisation of the event was superb - congratulations
to Roger and Sue Talbot and the rest of the team, it was definitely
one of the best tournaments of the year, and we're all looking
forward to the 3 day event planned at Drax on August Bank Holiday
next year.
2006
Unfortunately,
the 2006 Flyball Tournament held by Kellington Flyball Club had
to be moved at the last minute to the Royal Oak at Hirst Courtney,
as a large protest was taking place at the Drax Power Station.
The tournament was very successful, if cramped, and reports and
photos can be seen on the Kellington
Flyball Club's own pages
