'Sheltie at Work' HTM League Rules - How to take part:
To take part in the HTM league you will need to subscribe to our Sheltie At Work magazine (www.esscworkingsection.co.uk). Please send details of your places at KC Open HTM shows, 1st to 6th. The Working Section's magazine kindly supports the league. At the end of the year there will be rosettes to 6th place for each category within the league, for the highest number of points gained.
The points system is: 6 points for 1st place down to 1 point for 6th place.
Please e-mail your points to Rally-HTM @ esscworkingsection. co.uk (remove the 3 spaces which avoid this being targeted with spam), putting the Subject as 'HTM League'. When you first contact me, please include your name and address, telephone number, e-mail address and dogs registered name. Thereafter just send the name of the show, date of show and the places gained, with the dog's name if you are claiming points for more than one. Note that I will always reply to e-mails, so if you don't get a reply please resend.
Please send in your results within 12 weeks from the show date.
Please note that we are happy to accept older results for the current year if there is a show you didn't realise was eligible, or if you only recently heard about the league etc - however we prefer to receive results within the 12 week window so that the current league table reflects something closer to real time (and to avoid the site editor needing to add a ton of results at the end of the year!).
Please feel free to send photographs of your dogs for the website and also do please send your news.
