Agility Team Announced for European Open Championship
The Kennel Club has announced the selection of the Agility Team GB squad to compete at the 2010 European Open (EO) Agility Championships, which take place between the 23rd and 25th July in Liberec, Czech Republic.

The GB squad consists of a total of 12 large dogs and 12 small/medium dogs, making up six teams with four dogs in each. Under EO rules, small and medium dogs compete against each other in one group; the other group comprises the large dogs, which may not make up more than 50% of a country’s entries.
 
The team will be supported by the European Open team manager, Graham Partridge, together with coach Dave Jolly and vet Rachel Mowbray – herself an international agility competitor.
 
Graham Partridge commented: “The standard of the dogs at the Selection Day was very high, and we are going to Liberec with medals in mind. We are determined to build on our previous excellent performances at the European Open. We will be competing against some of the best in the world, but our target is to achieve podium finishes, and I believe that we have the talent to accomplish that.”
