BATTLE OF THE BREEDS

Dock Diving Event Description

First and foremost, this is a FUND-RAISER and a FUN-RAISER 😊.
This is a contest, being held at a NADD dock diving event at Teamworks Dog Training in Youngsvile, NC on July 24-26, 2026.
Anyone who is entered in at least one splash of Distance Jumping at the Teamworks NADD event can participate in the contest. A dog can be entered in just one of the contests, or all of them (see form).
There are two contests: Best of Breed Jump, and Best of Division Distance Jump (Open & Lap).
NEW FOR 2026: THIS IS NOT AN AVERAGE. THE ACTUAL BEST JUMP USED. TIES WILL BE BROKEN BY THE SECOND JUMP IN THAT SAME SPLASH THAT RESULTED IN THE BEST JUMP.
Mixed Breeds will be grouped as their own breed, with Open and Lap divisions.
You do not have to have more than one of a breed present at the event to be eligible for any of the contests.
Enter a contest by filling out a contest entry form. Only distance jumps will be used in calculating scores for the contests.
A minimum donation of $10 to the Romanian League in Defense of Animals, which is taking in homeless animals from Ukraine. You can donate online https://rolda.org/ and bring a receipt in (preferred), or you can bring cash or a check (written to Teamworks, but with ROLDA donation written in the memo field).
T-shirts are available to support this charity and will be available at the event.
Medals will be awarded to the winners from all three contests on Sunday, after the last distance jump and before HD begins. Winners do not have to be present but must pay postage if they want their medal to be mailed to them.
There may be some other toy prizes awarded for “most leisurely return swim” and “most unusual throw”. These prizes will be determined by the judges.
In the event of inclement weather on Sunday that completely prevents us from having the Sunday event, we will conclude the event on Saturday. However, as long as we are able to jump on Sunday, we will conclude the event on Sunday. Any changes in the event will be posted on the Teamworks website.
This contest is not in any way affiliated with North America Diving Dogs – it is simply a charity fundraiser. All NADD rules and regulations and facility rules still apply to the event.
