Down To Fetch Toss and Fetch League

09/25/2021

Week 1 of 90:/5 Fall Season begins today -- or a different day of the week depending on where you’re located in one of the 161 cities around the world. We’ve got hundreds of new people both new to the League and, many new to competitive disc do***ng.

If you’re new to League you’re going to find that playing as a Club is a different dynamic than when you compete as an individual – everyone on the Club cheers for each other, helps each other, and depends on each other. Don’t miss a League night if you can help it, be on time as best you can, and don’t be afraid to pitch in and help in any set-up, judging or teardown, if needed.

Regardless of where you play, there are some universal rules and etiquette specific to the Disc Dog World and generic ones when you play as a member of a sports Club:

1. Let your Captain know if you’re going to be late or you can’t make it so they’re not wondering or surprised.

2. Keep your dog secured if it’s not playing – either on a leash, in a crate or in your vehicle. Nothing is worse than ruining someone’s good round when your dog runs on to the field. Ok, a dogfight is worse. Don’t do that.

3. Even if on a leash, don't let your dog walk up to anyone else’s high-drive, Frisbee crazy, amped up dog. Keep a respectful distance always.

4. Write your name on your discs with a permanent marker so you don't lose any and you don’t go home with more than what you had.

5. Don’t throw discs near the competition field when another dog is playing. It can be distracting, and discs can get away from you.

6. If a dog loses a disc during a round, only their handler is allowed to run and retrieve the disc. You can point and call the dog, but don't touch someone else's disc during their round.

7. If you’re judging, call them like you see them. When in doubt, give the call to the Team.

8. Be ready to go when it’s your turn.

9. Be a good sport, always.

10. Pick up your p**p.

League is laid back. It’s meant to be a fun time with you, your dogs and your fellow disc doggers.

Toss well, have fun and good luck.

🍁 LEAGUE STARTS ON WEDNESDAY THE 29TH! 🍁

Start warming your throwing arm up, bring a hoodie & some hot cocoa (spike it, we won’t tell), and tell your dog to get ready! Fall league has the best temperature, lighting, and- rumor has it- the best trophies of the year.

If you are not a returning member and need to be added to the DTF group chat, message Gabby Scott.

No League tonight! We will pick back up with a safer season starting on July 28th, most likely at our regular field behind the Walkersville VFD.
Please keep your dogs and yourselves well hydrated and cool today! 🥵

DTF is back in action for this season, bringing in some great scores during Night 1 last night.

Our Big Three this week were
Taco and Gabby with 18.5 (all 2s 😩)
Maebe and Ashley with 14 high flying points
Loos and Ruth with 12.5 in very impressive catches!

No longer burdened by snow, the Agility Gals (Meaghan, Sara, & Tiffany) made an impressive comeback, doubling and even tripling last season’s averages! Just imagine how those numbers will soar when we actually have daylight... 🦅
Jeff showed off his arm, throwing nothing less than 3 and 5 pointers. Colby even caught a few! Blake had fun.
Kim is back with actual wind-up toy Fly, and brought along Lolo to learn the ropes. We’ll never say no to a dog who can outrun a Ferrari. 🚗
Another newbie joined us, Maria with Ke$ha the black Shepherd! Not often do dogs look like they actually know what they’re doing on their first night. Kudos, Ke$ha. We promise to admire you- at a distance. 🐺
Amy and Tigger are under investigation for performance enhancing energy drinks...they’re on a path to 50 point rounds at this rate! 💪
Melissa had a strong start with drool machine Remi, followed by an fun round with social butterfly Nellie.
Alena also came to rub their superior arm in everybody’s face. Several 2 and 3 pointers snatched handily by Nev, Trixie, and greenhorn Scout!

How is this the only photo I have when we have 6 photographers on the team? The world may never know.
