CRUFTS CHANGES

Following the announcement that Crufts 2021 will take place next year on the new dates of 15 – 18 July 2021 at the NEC Birmingham, The Kennel Club has now published some further details on some of the competitions and qualifications for next year’s show. 

The Kennel Club will be reviewing many aspects of the show in line with government advice and the evolving health situation, however, some decisions have needed to be made in advance to ensure it would be able to go ahead in a Covid secure way.  The qualification is open to those who qualified for Crufts 2020 apart from the 3rd placing in class. It should be also noted no puppy classes will be scheduled at the 2021 show due to lack of opportunity to qualify. 

Further to a review of the floor space and the number of exhibitors and attendees, the decision has had to be made that entries will be capped for all breeds.  Entries are due to open at the end of March and will be online only. Entries will close on 31 May 2021 or when numbers have been reached. 

It is with great disappointment that The Kennel Club must also announce that, due to the lack of opportunity to qualify, the following competitions will not be taking place at Crufts 2021: Breeders’ competition, International Junior Handling competition, Junior Warrant competition, Vulnerable Breeds competition and Pets as Therapy Stakes.  Further information on other competitions and canine disciplines will be announced as soon as possible. 

For further information on qualifications, and to keep up to date on how the Crufts 2021 show will look, please go to crufts.org.uk.  

Please note that it is hoped that Crufts 2022 will take place on 10 – 13 March. Any shows that take place between 25 January and 31 May 2021 will qualify for Crufts 2022, further details of which will be advised in due course.

Redeeming prizes sponsored by Royal Canin

Please note the following message from our show sponsor

We at Royal Canin are reaching out to you as we sponsored your show in the last twelve months.

With the ongoing Covid-19 crisis we are trying to help your winners redeem their prizes. Normally this would be done on our stand at the championship shows. As most shows are now cancelled until the end of October, we have altered the system to allow winners to claim their prizes via our Area Business managers.

To this end, we would be grateful if you could share the wording below on your club’s social media page or through your club website to try and make sure everyone who has a prize has a good chance of redeeming it in a timely fashion.

“Don’t forget that you can still redeem your gift certificates won at shows sponsored by Royal Canin by contacting their Area Business Manager. To find out who the Business Manager is for your area, click here: https://bit.ly/3b6yjOr”

We hope this goes some way to showing our support of shows and events and look forward to supporting you in the future.

In the meantime please stay safe.
