BFA Annual Awards
1. British Flyball Association Annual Awards Survey
BFA members are constantly doing some amazing things and the BFA Committee are looking at instigating some new annual awards to formally acknowledge this. We already reward teams for speed and wins and we recognise dog achievements through the points system, but we would also like to recognise all those achievements which don't currently earn a rosette, a trophy or glass award. We have put together a few ideas and are asking the membership for their feedback on what you would like to see recognised on an annual basis. We would be grateful if you would spend a few minutes answering this simple survey so we are able to recognise whatever it is that you would wish to celebrate. Thank You.
