Working Trials

Each year, usually early January, the Midlands Border Collie Club has held an Open Working Trials event courtesy of our WT Manager Barrie James (and his 'behind the scenes' helpers). The event grew so popular that we had to extend our KC Licence from 3 days to 4 to accommodate all those wishing to take part.

Barrie leads our Working Trials sub-committee, which works within the remit of the MBCC Committee and it was due to their hard work and his organisational skills that the MBCC was granted Championship status from 2008.

Our inaugural Championship event was held from 6th - 13th January 2008 and full results with report and photos can be found in the Archive.

MBCC is delighted to announce that we will be hosting the 2013 Kennel Club Working Trial Championships.
