Agility Challenge and
we look forward to each of the qualifiers and the final at the end of the
year. We do find our involvement with clubs, trainers, teams, and
competitions beneficial in understanding what is required at the highest
level. This involvement has resulted in more new development of our
NON-SLIP+ tunnels, NON-SLIP Sandbags and end caps, which have been extremely
well received by the agility community.'
Luke Taylor said 'We
are really pleased to welcome Naylor Agility as the title sponsor of the
Agility Challenge. The competition was set up by my dad, Graham Taylor in
2009, with the aim of offering competitors with lower grade dogs a chance of
a final in a public environment. Finalists have gone on to many successes
including competing at Crufts, London International Horse Show (Olympia) and
representing their countries on the international stage. We have always had
Naylor Agility products with our equipment and it’s great to grow the
partnership that has been going since the late 80s.'
