5 COLLIE HIT AGILITY DOG - AWARD SELECTION PROCESS CCA shall offer one High in Trial (HIT) agility award each day at the National Specialty. Only qualifying scores from the regular Standard and Jumpers with Weaves (JWW) classes count towards HIT. Preferred classes and additional classes, such as FAST and T2B, do not count towards HIT. For purposes of the HIT award, a "double Q" is defined as qualifying in both Standard and JWW, any level, or a combination of levels, on a single day of the agility trial. Classes are weighted as follows: Novice classes receive 90% of their score Open classes receive 95%, and Excellent/Masters receive 100%. Additionally, collies receive one point for each full second under standard course time (SCT). The HIT award is calculated by adding the weighted score of each of a collie's qualifying runs (Standard and JWW) plus one point for each full second under standard course time (SCT). The collie with the highest total score under this formula wins the HIT award. If no collie earns a "double Q," then the HIT award will be determined by calculating only the weighted score for Standard runs plus one point for each full second under SCT for the Standard run. In the event of a tie, the tie will be broken on the basis of the fastest yards per second (YPS) achieved in any run counted towards the HIT by the tied collies. MOST VERSATILE COLLIE IN SHOW 2016 To be eligible for this award a Collie must participate in at least three of the four AKC events offered by the CCA (Breed, Obedience/Rally, Agility or Herding). Sign up for the award at any performance event. You must sign up for the award to be eligible, and signup sheets must be turned in to Jim Smotrel by the end of the agility trial. The detailed rules for determining the winner from the Collies that qualify for the award are given below. Note that weighting factors are used in each of the performance events to recognize the increased difficulty of the higher level classes. In the Non-Best of Variety classes, points are awarded based on the number of dogs defeated in the class. All scores will be recorded from the posted Judge's sheets. Jim Smotrel will maintain the official scores at this show and announce the award presentations on Saturday, March 26, 2016 in the ring (Time TBA). MOST VERSATILE COLLIE PRIZES Most Versatile Collie in Show - CCA 15 Silver Plated Loving Cup and large Rosette Most Versatile Collie Large Rectangular Tray from Louisville Stoneware featuring original art by Mike Cheatham, offered by GRITS (Girls Raised in The South) Most Versatile Collie Qualifiers Qualifying Rosette and Memento Item RULES FOR THE MOST VERSATILE COLLIE AWARD To be eligible for this award, your Collie needs a qualifying score in at least three of the four AKC events at the National Specialty. A Collie that receives MVC points in Breed is considered to have received a qualifying score in that event. Only one score will be counted for each event. The Collie obtaining the highest point total will win the award. The following scoring system will apply: Breed: All Collies that are a conformation champion or have at least 5 championship points will receive a minimum of 40 MVC points for entering and showing in a conformation class at the CCA National. Collies with fewer than 5 Championship points will not automatically receive any MVC points for showing in a conformation class. Points will only be awarded for placing in a class and defeating competition. Since this is an individual award, Brace Class performance does not count. No points will be awarded to Collies entering a conformation class and not showing (i.e. marked absent). In the BOV class, points will be awarded as follows: Making no cuts: 40 points Making first cut: 50 points Making second cut: 60 points Making third cut: 70 points Awards of Merit: 80 points Reserve Winners: 75 points

6 Winners: 80 points Best of Winners: 85 points Best of Variety: 100 points Best of Opposite Sex to Best of Variety: 90 points In all other conformation classes, points will be awarded based on the number of dogs defeated in that class as follows No placement: 40 points for conformation Champions and Collies with 5 or more CH points; 0 points for Collies with fewer than 5 Championship points Placements: Two (2) MVC points are awarded for every dog defeated in the class up to a maximum total number of 70 MVC points.
