Sayreovi Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 I didn't go looking for the posts so haven't quoted them, but to the people in WA the AFA have tried to organise seminars for at least the last 4 years, possibly longer, to try and get the sport up and running over there but nobody has taken up the offer. There was a DOLer who had trained dogs already (I think she had previously lived in SA or Vic) and had since moved to Esperance who was prepared to get involved too and was prepared to travel to Perth to get the sport running but there just wasn't enough interest. Lots of talk, but nobody really keen enough when push came to shove. Perhaps now is the time to revisit it? There would be plenty of people happy to help out if need be. She moved to a town 200kms from Esperance and stayed around 6 to 8 months then has moved back east again. This sounds like me? :laugh: :D Haha I was reading it thinking 'are they talking about me? How many other flyballers did this?' :laugh: Yeah I was quite willing to go to Perth to train people up if wanted, had experienced dogs etc etc but no dice :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then there were a few who were going to come over with us for the Agility Nationals in 2010 and do some flyball then too but it didn't happen either.
