AGM Cups

This page includes nomination forms for each of the Cups awarded at the Club AGM as listed in the Yearbook. Please note the Harold Newman Trophies for Show Dog & Bitch of the year are awarded automatically and do not need to be claimed.

Please read criteria carefully for each award. Those with the highest points total may be asked to produce evidence to validate the claim.

Nominations are for the previous year and are open from the 1st January to 28th February each year. Nominations made outside of this time period will not be counted.

The competition rules are:

• An award will be allocated for inclusion in the Yearbook, but the Trophy will not be given if the owner of the dog is not a member. In multi-ownership all owners should be members.
• Trophies are not available to any member not resident in the UK.  
• Trophies will only be presented at the AGM and the recipient must have been a member for the full year for which the award is claimed. The year to be taken as January 1^st to December 31^st.
• Detailed claims, i.e. date, venue and award must reach the Annual Points Trophy Steward by the AGM Committee Nominations closing date of the following year.
• The National Gundog Association to count as a Group
• Best in Show at any Breed Club Championship Show to only count as a Best of Breed
• Points for Breed class wins  in Championship Shows without C.C.s count as an Open Show
• The points scheme for the CH. MARKSMAN O’MATHERN, the RHIWIDERIN and THE TARBAY POINTS trophies are given below. However, points cannot be accumulated at any one show – only the HIGHEST award must be counted at any show, trial or test, e.g.: A dog at a Championship Show wins Limit (5) – Open (5) and the C.C. (8) and goes on to be Best of Breed (10). Only the 10 points for Best of Breed count.
