Join a Club
Once
you have decided to give Retrieving a go, the
best thing you can
do to get involved is join a club that hosts
Retrieving
events.
Retrieving clubs (and participating Breed
clubs), exist to run trials and training activities
and encourage
participation. There are several
good reasons for joining
a club. The first is that you
will be personally notified about important coming events
(that are not always advertised), and importantly, you will gain
access to
a network of knowledgeable experienced triallers who
are
usually very willing to help newcomers to learn about the sport and
secrets for success. Retrieving is a small sport in
Australia
in terms
of numbers of participants, so it's a good thing to get behind
clubs that keep it going. Membership fees are usually very
reasonable, so many people often support more than one club after
they have become involved.
Below is a list of active clubs in your state who would be
delighted to hear from you...
