I withdrew my earlier post, I thought I was in a vet division in Pre elite in Springfield in 2015, but thinking back I'm not so sure.
So that means, how do I find a team mate, if there may or may not be a pre elite vet group? Maybe we just find pre elite teammates...But if it doesn't matter there, why does it matter in the regular Champs? (Matter as far as for teams, not for having the division/separation in the first place). Seems like in both cases the dogs are running the same course. Pre elite dogs run the same course whether vet or not. Regular Champs dogs run the same course whether vet or not. Double Digit dogs run the pre elite courses as I recall.... I would think that it would be the course/starting point total that would define who could be on a team... Except by breaking out the vets for teams we have more "winners" (nothing wrong with that) and you have vets competing against vets...but then Not in pre elite...
Oh well, obviously, I'm just TOTALLY confused, but I'm just old and senile anyway!!! :-)
