Swansea Dog Obedience Club

Our Obedience and Rally trial always needs the help of 1 table steward and 2 ring stewards per ring. Therefore, it is convenient to have at least 6 or 7 people available come trial days.
Trial experience is not necessary and ring stewarding might actually be a great help to provide context to a sport you want to train for.
It is preferred that our table stewards have experience table stewarding if not stewarding and competing.
