A1 & A3 Judges List Criteria
GENERAL
All judges who are included in the Society's List of Judges must agree to write a critique on their judging of the breed and to submit it within the time limit to the canine press.
The list is valid for a specific period and upon expiry the Society will publish an updated list. Inclusion in any part of the list does not guarantee automatic admission to future lists.
The Field Spaniel Society Committee alone shall decide which judge's names are to be included on the Society's annual list. Although proposed judges may fulfil the criteria required, this does not guarantee automatic inclusion on any of the Society's lists. Judges on these lists have the support of the Field Spaniel Society and, as such, acceptance on the Lists are regarded as an honour by the Society.
The Field Spaniel Society acknowledges the Kennel Club Judges Development Programme and the valuable input it gives to Judges, and as such, the Field Spaniel Society would be pleased to add any participant onto the Society's Judges Lists once the Society's Judges Criteria has been met. When calculating the number of Field Spaniels judged, only ones in breed classes count.
