​2015 Mondioring World Cup

While we are on a roll supporting the USMRA, our fellow AWDF member club, here's another really exciting development. The AWMA is also working with the USMRA to send a full team to the FMBB in 2016.
United States Mondioring Association has selected the team that will represent the United States at the World Cup in Vendenheim, France October 1 - 4, 2015. This is the first time that USMRA has hosted a full team, made up of one dog at Mondioring 1, one dog at Mondioring 2, and five plus and alternate at Mondioring 3. This team is authorized by the AWDF, and a representative is sent to the international FCI Sub Committee meeting. Help us follow this team, as it is the most competitive team we have sent to date. Updates will be posted on this group. 
MR 1 
Terrill Isbell — Petronas OT Vitosha (Vader)
MR 2 
Patty Phillips — I'Winston du Loups du Soleil (Winston)
MR 3
Maya Conrad — Moonquest's Zorro del Sol y Noche (Zorro)
Marie Skello — Fuel de Competitor (Fuel)
Shawn Reed — I'Repo du Loups du Soliel (Repo)
David Broderick — Idole du Loups du Soliel (Idole)
Al Vinjamur — Halycon de Loups du Soliel (Haly)
Alternate for MR 3
Paul Anthony — Finnegan des Ombres Valereaux (Finn)

​Mondioring officially an FCI international sport!

Some good news for dogsports! Mondioring now officially recognized by the FCI as an international sport.
On June 24 the Mondioring FCI Sub-committee received the official information that the Mondioring is completely recognized as a International discipline. This recognition has been sought for many years, and is the result of a great deal of hard work by many, including President CU/FCI M. F. Jansen.
Congrats to everyone who made this happen.

​Help for Apprentice Judges

The AWMA has received a generous donation that will allow us to support our judges program. Here are the things that we are now able to do. If you have been thinking about becoming an apprentice judge but are concerned about costs, this should help at least a little, and we would welcome your application to become a judge. We can now also support AWMA clubs that use AWMA judges, again in the interest of growing our own judging program. Contact us if you have questions!
1. Reimbursement of the $100 UScA fee for AWMA apprentice judges to apprentice under a UScA judge, contingent upon submission of the apprenticeship report to the AWMA DOJ.
2. Reimbursement of $100 in expenses (documented) to apprentice at a trial contingent upon submission of the apprenticeship report to the AWMA DOJ.
3. Payment of $100 to any AWMA club that uses an AWMA judge for their event, payable upon submission of a completed trial report to the AWMA secretary.
