This year’s competition also included the Inaugural Flyball Run-Off Races, a head-to-head competition for individual competitors.

We are thrilled to be able to share the sport of Flyball with ESPN viewers,” said Gina DiNardo, AKC’s Executive Secretary. “Flyball is such a fast-paced sport that it will keep them glued to their televisions.”
