    Hello Victor, ACES (athletic canine enthusiast society) started back in late 2006 with a group of friends going around a local park doing some running, attending local shows and fairs together, out of that grew ACES as you see it now, we have our own land with facilities (limited but they are there, lol) and we run regular dog activity days throughout the year. The single most important thing I believe that has kept our club alive is the core runners are "real" friends, we enjoy each others company socially as well as the run days although I feel many of us see the days as social also, nor

    Would also like to add we often do group races at the end of the days if we have the time, dogs are grouped not by breed or type but by times, definitely great fun to watch! Dogs can opt out of the group racing and run singly if they so wish, all dogs that group run must wear muzzles!

    Saturday 8th Nov 08, last ACES day of the year! All the usual fun stuff going on at Handcross Hill, Haywards Heath, RH17. (15 mins drive south from Gatwick airport) 100 meter runs now electronically timed with our new timers. Long jump or A frame, although Aframe can be used throughout the day. There are other activities available for use throughout the day, Boomer ball play, Springpull, Mill. Off the top of my head the most common questions are... Q: Its all Staffords, can any dog attend? A: Yes any breed is welcome, its mostly Staffords because the soc

    Have never been before so couldnt compare it to what it was like in the past, expected so much more, I prefer the smaller events where more local produce is sold, this one was very commercial, inflated prices, still we did have a good time, just didnt spend much! We camped over by the terrier and lurcher rings and the nearest toilets were the 2 by the shooting, got up Sunday morning and the cheeky b****rds had dragged one of the 2 porta-loos off to place it under the string barrier for the shooting and put a sign on the other saying shooters only!!!! had to laugh................

    ACES Staffords straight racing.... Thank you so much to the two fellas that agreed to slip the dogs, much appreciated, Staffords dont have great recall once they are on the lure so we needed people down the end catching!! I do have pics of one of the show rings on the Sunday but unfortunately we missed most of the showing as we was shopping and then straight racing

    Now im not a pro and some shots are way better than others but I thought id put them all up anyway, you can see the dogs placings just after being slipped, before the first turn. Happy to send full size copies of the pics to dogs owners if any of them happen to frequent the board just shoot me an email ghostlyease@hotmail.com We was camping by the Terrier and Lurcher rings so didnt see anybody on the camp site although heard you on the Saturday night, lol.... Nice to bump into Aaron even if he did walk past me 3 times till I said "do I know you" then he still said no, wouldnt mind but Ri

    I did direct the lady that took these pics to the forum but she had trouble registering, unsure why............ Edited to add I did pass on your lovely comments, she is very passionate about what she does but the way things are in the wider world she finds audiences for her work like this few and far between. Thank you for the comments, hopefully at some point she will make it on.

    Pulleys can be made out of certain types of trolley wheels, go to your local supermarket and have a nose, there are ones that once you take the rubber wheel out your left with a metal, grooved free turning wheel , these can be used, we have used this type when doing simulated coursing.
