ELIGIBILITYFOR CLASSES
In the following definitions of classes first prizes or other prize wins are those gained in standard classes at any Kennel Club licensed Championship Agility, Premier Agility, Open Agility or Limited Agility Shows (i.e. special classes and invitational events excepted). Only a first place with a clear round completed within the course time set by the judgewill count towards grade progression.
Standard classes may be scheduled for Agility Shows as Agility classes or Jumping classes. All standard classes must contain the Weaving Poles obstacle. Standard Agility classes must contain the following elements: "A Ramp", Dog Walk and See-Saw. With this proviso classes are defined as follows:-
Class Structure. A Class may either be held as a Graded Class or a Combined Class. A Graded Class may be scheduled for one or more consecutive grades with separate results and awards issued for each grade. A Combined Class may be scheduled for more than one consecutive grade with one overall set of results.
Progression. Progression from each grade will require one Agility win or three Jumping wins in standard classes at that grade, except that progression from Grade 5 will require 3wins at Grade 5, one of which must be an agility class. Progression from Grade 6 will require 4 wins at Grade 6, two of which must be agility classes. Results from Combined Classes will only count towards progression from the dog’s current grade.
Points Progression. At the handler’s discretion a dog may progress up to Grade 4 by winning 100 points at each grade, using the Agility Warrant points scheme, Regulation K3.c refers, except that there is no requirement for a minimum number of Agility points. If this method of progression is selected, the handler must ensure the Show Secretary signs the dog’s Agility Record Book at the first show entered at the higher grade. There is no time limit on this progression. However, once a dog has progressed, it cannot return to a previous grade.
Progression on points must be done prior to the close of entries. It is not possible to change a grade on points once the entries have closed.
STANDARD CLASSES
Only first prizes and points gained in standard classes at Kennel Club licensed Agility Shows may be used for progression through the classes. (A dog is only eligible for one grade.) In defining the eligibility of the owner or handler for grade 1, the three jumping wins and points progression referred to in the definition apply only to one dog and not an accumulation of dogs.

To consist of 2 qualifying rounds of Standard Kennel Club classes, 1 Agility and 1 Jumping Class and a final round of Agility to be held at the same Show.
SPECIAL CLASSES
Societies may schedule classes other than those defined above as “Special classes”. The eligibility for “Special” classes must be defined by the Society and included in the schedule. The word “Special” must be included in the title of the class. Where special classes are classified for older and/or inexperienced dogs, the height of the hurdles,the A-ramp, and the dog walk, and the length of the long jump, may be reduced below the dimensions specified in these regulations, in which case such dimensions must be included in the class definition in the show schedule.
