The BH and FH1/IGP-FH Draw will take place prior to the Annual AWDF General Board Meeting. The Draw on Thursday determines flights but, of course, not the order of tracking as a separate draw determining order within the flight takes place at the tracking fields, after tracks have been laid, supervised by the Tracking Coordinators.
Competitors who are trialing two (2) dogs will, of course, be accommodated within the context of the draw and the established schedule, in the presence of all competitors and supervised by the event chairs, etc.
