Common Questions

Flyball TC (FTC) is an independent Flyball training club that lets you and your dog earn awards and track your progress through structured training levels. It doesn't matter which Flyball association your team is affiliated with — or even which country you train and race in. You and your dog can accrue points and gain awards wherever you compete.

Simply create an account on our website. Once registered, you can add your dogs, track their training progress through the levels, and purchase awards when they complete each stage.

We have four progressive levels, each building on the skills from the previous one. Level 1 covers the basics like runbacks, ball retrieves, and introduction to the flyball box. Level 2 adds jumps and recalls against other dogs. Level 3 introduces full runs with box turns, and Level 4 brings head-to-head racing and team relay passes.

Once your dog has completed all the items for a level, submit your evidence through the website. An admin will review your submission and, once approved, you can purchase the corresponding level award from our shop.

Go to your dashboard, select the dog and the level they have completed, tick off the items they've achieved, and add any supporting evidence such as video links or descriptions of how each item was completed. An admin will then review and approve or provide feedback.

Clean runs are error-free runs completed at Flyball tournaments or training sessions. You can log clean runs for each dog per show. These are tracked on your dog's profile and contribute to their overall record.

Individual level awards (Levels 1-4) are available in our shop. We also offer a Levels 1-4 bundle at a discounted price. You can also find special awards like the "Thank You for the Fun" award and the "Welcome to Open" award. Prices are listed in the shop.

Yes! When you first register you can add your dogs, and you can add more at any time from your dashboard. Each dog has its own profile tracking their training levels, clean runs, and purchased awards.

No. One of the unique aspects of FTC is that it doesn't matter which Flyball association your team is affiliated with. You can earn points and awards wherever you compete — tournaments do not even need to be sanctioned events.

You can delete your account from the profile section of your dashboard. This will permanently remove your account, your dogs, and all associated data including clean runs, submissions, and payment history. This action cannot be undone.
