BanGo Club Program
BanGomaster has designed a special program to let existing and new clubs train and compete in BanGo tournaments, earn points for regionals and majors and earn extra money for the club.
Type of Events
Generally these events are small (30 to 50 dog runs per day) and may only be held a maximum of two weeks per month during the season. Usually the clubs are training as well for other types of events such as field trails or hunt test. This being the case, BanGo can be run in much the same way as hunt tests with similar equipment. The BanGomaster club program will included the following:
- BanGomaster will sanction the events so that players can earn points to compete in majors or super majors. A minimum of 20 dogs per division must compete in order to earn points. All scores will be posted on the National BanGomaster website.
- Clubs will agree to conduct the tournaments in accordance with the National BanGomaster rules.
- BanGomaster will provide a commercial license to use the patented BanGo target bird under US patent US 6,708,649 B1.
- All players must be members of the BanGomaster federation.
- BanGomaster can provide scorecards, prizes and equipment rentals.
