  • On Your Mark
    ON YOUR MARK WHAT IS FLYBALL Flyball racing is a fast and exciting sport, not only for the spectators and handlers, but for the dogs as well. There are four dogs on a team with an alternate or two. As teams line up, excitement builds. With each dog eager to compete, sometimes it's all the handler can do to hold their dogs. A judge signals the start of the race between the two competing teams. The first dog from each team is released. Each handler is hoping the green light will go on before their dog hits the start and finish line. The first dog is normally released with the first or second caution light, often more than 50 feet from the start line. Racing side by side, each dog races down its lane, flying over a set of four jumps set ten feet apart. At the far end of each lane is a flyball box. Each dog must step on a flyball box pedal releasing a mechanism flipping a tennis ball from the cup. Like Olympic swimmers, dogs bank off the box, hopefully with the ball, if not, the dog must retrieve the ball, and than return over all four jumps with the ball. As each dog makes the turn another dog is waiting eagerly to be released. Dogs are often released more than 50 feet from the start/finish line in an effort to reach top speed as they pass the returning dog at the start/finish line. The lead changes several times as dogs and handlers alike make mistakes.
