Washington Glory Demo

The flyball demo at the Washington Glory softball game went great! For those of you that don't know, the Washington Glory is the DC area's professional women's fastpitch softball team. We ran two teams, one team performed two heats after the 3rd inning and the second team ran two heats after the 5th inning, then the two teams raced each other in the middle of the 6th inning. Team One consisted of myself, Skipper, Comet and Tilt and Team Two consisted of Torque, Bandit, Lady and Freedom. It was a little hectic for our humans because they had to run out there and set up the jumps and box really quickly. There were also some dogs who preferred not to actually jump over the jumps to get the box. I can completely understand, I mean, it's a lot easier to run straight to the box and then straight back. I jumped all the jumps though! I think that going to Terri's flyball class last Monday helped me because there, I had to do runs in the grass and got used to it. Also, since Riot wasn't there, I had to run with Skipper and then Freedom behind me. We did some late passes and I definitely took a look them as they passed but I was really good and ran right back to Amy.

David came and took this picture. He took some others and some video but hasn't gotten a chance to upload them yet. When he does, I will let everyone know.

Although there wasn't a huge crowd at the game, I think most of the people who were there really enjoyed the demo. Even though it was really hot, we had fun :o)
