Interesting program on jury and ringmaster day

Saturday, June 8, 2019, the Jury and Ringmaster's Day will be held on the grounds of the Hippisch Verband Putten.

The program begins at 11 a.m. with an interesting presentation by Daniëlle Arts who is a breeding specialist at the KWPN. While enjoying a cup of coffee or tea, you will hear what breeding entails, how heredity works, what the consequences of inbreeding are and how the top bar of the linear score form works.

Following her presentation, there will be room for questions after which lunch will be provided at noon for all in attendance.

After lunch, the group will split in two, one part will go to the judges' meeting and the other part will begin ringmaster day.

Ringmaster Day

Registration for the ringmaster day is still open. We cordially invite people who are already ringmaster with the NWPCS and have been in the ring before. They can spar together on this day about their experiences and in this way share their knowledge with each other.

However, we are also looking for new volunteers, people who think ‘I would like to do that too‘ are also welcome to attend on this day. Together with the experienced ringmasters and under the guidance of Frans and Frank Kappel, they will learn the intricacies of ringmastership.

Everyone is welcome!

If, after this training day, you are still interested in actually carrying out the task as ringmaster, please let the board know. They will ensure that your details are forwarded to the relevant department after which you can be assigned as ringmaster.

You can register at bestuur@nwpcs.nl and there are no further costs associated with this day..
