Simple Agility Websites?

[arf2184]

Does anyone know of any good websites that have simplified/basic explanations of the various agility rules and how each organizations rules differ?

 

I'm also looking for a site that explains what the different events/classes are....Jumpers, Tunnelers, etc are obvious. Touch N Go, Chances, FAST, Gamblers, Relay, Snooker, etc. are not so obvious to me...even after having watched a few in person.

 

I will read each organizations handbooks eventually, but for now I'm just trying to find some simple descriptions...something that I can share with my mother and best friend to give them a little more understanding, without overwhelming them...they're cat people, lol.

This may be helpful as it has some of the basics...

This might be one for them to look at. If details are not so important (like rule changes that have happened in the last year or so) then the rule books and news announcements on the various venues' websites are the way to go. (And, as you'll see this does not include Teacup, UKI, etc.)

The Wiki article has a brief description of some of the games classes like Snooker. I have found it helpful to stand with someone who knows what they're looking at and narrate/answer questions.
