Many thanks to the Judges ,Committee, Stewards & Helpers who gave up their time and expertise to ensure the Day ran smoothly.
Well done to all the competitors who took part, for some their first time in a Working Test. A great way to finish off the Summer Training Season.
Spaniels showed off their hunting paces through woodland and hedgerows with bracken, fern and woodpiles with a seen and a blind retrieve from each Judge.
Hopefully we will see a few members go on to compete in Field Trials, and others do well in the Shooting Field.
Thank you to Gamekeeper Goods for donating prizes. Also to Skinners for their sponsorship.

Great K.C. Working Tests set for the spaniels in cool woodland with bracken, ferns, lots of cover and plenty of scent. The Judges ensured each spaniel was put through their paces on fresh ground. New Trophies were given to Winners donated from the Club, also gifts donated from Gamekeeper Goods were handed out to members in the awards. Thank you to Skinners Working Gundog Food for their sponsorship.
Many thanks to Keeper Geoff Spencer for allowing DWSC to use his ground. Much appreciation to all the helpers, especially the Judges who gave up their time to ensure the day ran smoothly.
