(1978)The ABC may grant parent approval to regional clubs whose fall and spring trials fall too close to meet theAKC date deadlines before recording fees and results are sent to the ABC. (1978)After a club has been granted permission by the AKC to hold a licensed trial and before its premium list is printed,it must send to the AKC, for approval, copy of a Questionnaire Form (supplied by the AKC) which will give theexact location of the trial, the dates of the trial, and set exact location of the trial, the dates of the trial, and set forththe stakes to be run and their conditions, ribbon prizes, names and addresses of the judges and stakes they are tojudge, names and addresses of the officers of the club, including the name and address of the Field Trial Chairmanand names of the other members of the Field Trial Committee.The place where entries are to be drawn need not be identical with the place where entries are received.Each premium list shall specify that the Field Trial Secretary is to receive entries.Premium lists, when printed, shall contain all the information set forth on the Questionnaire Form as approved byAKC and shall be the official size, from 5 '/2 by 8 '/2 inches to 6 by 9 inches. Limits on entries received refer to thefact that you cannot accept more dogs than you can run. If you expect more than 70 dogs and cannot run that in twodays, you must either add another day to the trial, set a limit on the number or find grounds where two stakes maybe run at the same time However, they must be decided before sending in the questionnaire form. The judgingassignments as printed on the Premium List cannot be altered and no additional judges may be added prior to theopening date of the trial except under extreme emergency conditions which must be reported in full to AKC andbefore the trial and at the time the trial results are submitted to the AKC.Under no circumstances can a numerical entry limitation ever be exceeded.If no entry limitation is printed on the Premium List, the club is obligated to accept al l eligible entries, regardless ofhow many. Entries may be limited to a specific number or "to the number of dogs that may be run during thedaylight hours on the trial dates." If you do this and are unable to complete the trial because of too many entries, theclub is indicating that the trial may have been mismanaged and the matter will be investigated by AKC and a finemay result.Entries must close no later than the published hour for the drawing which must be held not later than the nightpreceding the running of the first stake.Sometimes you can avoid trouble on a large entry if you list the starting time of the first stake and list the rest "tofollow". This allows you to start a stake late Saturday when the two stakes you planned for Sunday run too large.21
