White Rose Agility is a group of agility handlers, trainers and competitors who train together privately once a week in Halifax, West Yorkshire. When White Rose Agility began in August 2000, there was only one Novice handler; all the others were Elementary, Starters or Pre-competition. There were about 16 members and about 20 dogs. One member was already a judge and a trained instructor.

White Rose Agility now has three practising judges, and five instructors. Currently the club has 19 members training 29 Large dogs, 4 Medium dogs and 3 Small dogs between them. The dogs range from Bichons to Gordon Setters and Weimaraners, with collies, cross breeds, lurchers, shelties and Australian Cattle Dogs and Sheep Dogs in between. Dogs compete at all Grades from 1 through to 7. The group provides ring parties for at least 4 shows a year and visiting trainers supplement the instruction given.

Because of existing numbers, we are not able currently to accept new members, and do not keep a waiting list. If in the future we are able to offer places, it will be to those already competing in this exciting sport. We regret we cannot take on those new to the sport because of existing commitments.
