TIME 2 BEAT CLASS (T2B) Time 2 Beat is a new AKC agility class that became a titling class in 2011. Time 2 Beat is a "hybrid" class built primarily from obstacles from Jumpers With Weaves, with the option of having one to two contacts included on the course. This class is unique, as each dog has the chance to set the "Time to Beat" for each jump height division. This is different than the current AKC classes (Standard and JWW) where the Standard Course Time (SCT) is set by the course yardage as wheeled by the judge. Additionally, this is different than any other AKC agility classes because there is only one course to set for all dogs to compete. This is a time saver for clubs, judges and exhibitors. To earn the T2B (Regular) or T2BP (Preferred) title, a dog must earn 15 qualifying scores and 100 points. Points are based on how close your dog s time is to the fastest dog in your jump height. Regulations for this class can be found in the Regulations for Agility Trials in Chapter 10. MOVE-UPS Trial Secretary must receive move-up form by 6:00 PM the Monday before the trial. There will be day-to-day move-ups Saturday to Sunday provided the request is made in writing to the Trial Secretary on Saturday at the trial. SET-UPS You can set up Friday afternoon after 3 pm. No shade is available. Overnight security will be provided both Friday and Saturday night. However dogs, equipment or personal items left on Show Grounds are the responsibility of each exhibitor. Valle Del Sol Golden Retriever Club is not responsible for lost or stolen dogs or equipment.
