Tips

  • Prepare one Treibball plus spare balls before the event, and check that every ball is suitable for the competition field. A damaged or missing ball can delay a class, so keep the spares beside the equipment check area.
  • Match bib numbers, numbered vests and scoreboards to the final start list rather than the number of registrations received. Print a small surplus of forms and certificatesβ€”around 10% extra is a practical buffer for late corrections.
  • Plan one water bowl for each active dog area, plus extra bowls if dogs will wait in several locations. Set out dog waste bag dispensers before competitors arrive; these are easy to forget when attention is focused on the field.
  • Count extension cords, power strips and charging cables before loading the vehicle, then charge power banks and walkie-talkies the day before. Keep cables away from walking routes and have one clearly marked charging point at the registration desk.
  • Bring measuring tapes, cones, field marking tape, marker bags and start line mats together in one field kit. Prepare this kit at least 24 hours ahead so the course can be marked consistently before the first briefing.

Frequently asked questions

What equipment do I need for a Treibball competition?
You need Treibballs and spare balls, cones, field marking tape, start line mats, measuring tapes and marker bags. Add bib numbers, numbered vests, scoreboards and stopwatches for participant and judging control.
How many water bowls do I need for a Treibball competition?
Use at least one water bowl for each active dog area, and add one or two spare bowls for waiting areas or replacements. Put them out before registration opens so handlers do not need to ask for them during a class.
What should I prepare for registration at a Treibball competition?
Set up a registration desk with a laptop, printer, charging cables, printed competition forms, bib numbers and the final start list. Prepare the desk at least 60 minutes before the first scheduled check-in.
When should I check Treibball competition equipment?
Complete the main equipment check at least one day before the event, including the sound system, wireless microphones, extension cords, power strips and walkie-talkies. Do a second 30-minute check on the morning of the competition.
