Progressing to the next grade...
There
are two methods of moving your dog up to the next agility grade in a Kennel Club show – by
winning a 1st place in time or by accumulating points. Different rules apply depending on whether you
are moving up because of a win or on points. Thank you to Linda Croxford for
shared the progression rules.
1. You
can progress on wins as below.

2.
You can
progress on points, but only to G4.
At the
handler's discretion, a dog may progress to Grade 4 by winning 100 points at
each grade. A minimum of 50 points must be gained in Agility (not Jumping)
classes in the relevant grade. If this method of progression is selected, the
handler must ensure the Show Secretary signs the dog's agility record book at
the first show entered at the higher grade. This can only be signed at the show
you have entered. No where else.
To
progress on points, it must be done before the closing date, however at the
first show at the new grade. The Secretary should sign the record book to
confirm the points and that the dog is now competing at the new grade.
