1. At the National Championship event, the manner of setting birds in the field will be determined by the Board of Directors. No cages will be allowed.
2. Effective March 1, 2021. The Board of Directors has decided that since the Flushing Division has grown, there will be a requirement of eight (8) dogs to have a sanctioned event. The number of events per day will be two (2) Flushing Open and two (2) Flushing Doubles.
