Today's rally

[Joy]

Wow wow wow, congratulations!!! You're doing so well, you must be so proud.

Can you explain the levels and how you compete in more than one? In Aus, we have to get a certain number of passes at a level before we get the title. Once you have the title, you can no longer compete at that level but you are allowed to compete at the next level.

There are 6 levels (level 1 is the lowest). You qualify out of a level by either getting 6 scores of 175 or more (which gives you a Rally Level [insert number] Title) or 3 scores of 190 or more under 3 different judges (which gives you a Rally Level [insert number] Excellent Title). Once you have qualified out of a level you can't go back to it again. You have to compete in the lowest level for which you are eligible but you can also choose to compete in the next level up at the same trial.
Levels 1 and 2 are on-lead and Levels 3 - 6 are off-lead. There are 200 points for the main course plus 10 points for optional bonus (one additional exercise) so basically marked out of 210.

Molly and I gained our Rally Level 1 Excellent at our last show so we are eligible for Levels 2 and 3. We need one more 'excellent' score at level 2 to gain that title and two more for level 3. There won't be any more now till next spring though.

Are you still competing with Ella?
