Saturday June 16th 2007 - team practice

(Backfilled in October 2009 due to impending closure of Geocities)

Thanks to the keen eyes of our team captain, it was discovered today that Lucy thinks the duct tape startline is there to show her where to take off for the first jump! She's jumping the tape which makes her land way short for all the rest of the jumps going to the box. When we placed a second piece of tape between the start line and the first jump she used the new tape as her guide and so took off at the proper place. In other news, her remedial passing training is coming along really well! Recalls with a couple of dogs in the lineup went well (might be time soon to push it up and put the dogs closer to the centre of the lane), and we tried something new which is using one jump and the box, putting a dog in the "lineup" after the jump so she does a turn with one jump then grabs the ball and back over the jump past the dog.
