2024 KENNEL REGISTRATION GUIDELINES FOR K.O.Y. - MUST REGISTER BY JAN 31, 2024
*ANY and ALL KENNELS wanting to compete for KENNEL OF THE YEAR (KOY) AWARDS For 2024, One day and multi-day trials, MUST REGISTER THEIR KENNEL HERE WITH THE LEADERBOARD KENNEL REGISTRY.
*This registry is AT NO COST TO YOU OR YOUR KENNEL BUT in order for us to keep track of the kennels and their members, it is a must for the leaderboard and sponsors.
*YOU MUST REGISTER YOUR KENNEL HERE ON THIS POST! IF YOU ARE NOT LISTED HERE ON THIS POST BY JAN 31st 2024 YOU WILL NOT BE REGISTERED OR BE ELIGIBLE FOR ANY YEAR END AWARDS FOR THE LEADERBOARD KENNEL OF THE YEAR IN 2024. . . NO NEW KENNEL MEMBERS CAN BE ADDED AFTER JAN 31st 2024, UNTIL THE FOLLOWING YEAR.
*REGISTRATION PERIOD FOR 2024 WILL BE FROM December 31st UNTIL JANUARY 31st, Even if your kennel was registered in 2023, YOU MUST DO IT AGAIN FOR 2024
A kennel can contain up to a MAXIMUM LIMIT OF 4 MEMBERS for registry, based on “RESIDENCY”.
New for 2024, two separate Kennel names can no longer be combined together to recognize a “group” of people as a single kennel.
Meaning- a kennel must choose a single name to be identified by within the Leaderboard program and cannot combine names for the registry by using a / or using “and”.
** Example: Low Rider Kennel/Coming at Ya Kennel is no longer allowed. A Plus Kennel & Sleepy Eye Kennel is no longer allowed. Each of these examples represent two separate kennel names. In both examples, only one of the names can be chosen, but not a combination of both. If individuals want “recognition” for their “kennel” or individual accomplishments, then they are encouraged to register separately or choose a “new” name.
As in years past, NO KENNEL CAN HAVE MORE THAN 4 MEMBERS RESIDING AT SEPARATE RESIDENTS/ADDRESSES. Note – Spouses and children residing in a member's home can be listed as members but are not included and counted as separate members because they reside at the same home. Meaning – Spouses and children DO NOT have to be listed as separate members because it is understood they are part of your family kennel.
Registration is Simple-
#1. LIST YOUR KENNEL NAME AND AN ADDRESS AND PHONE NUMBER TO GO WITH IT.
#2. LIST ANY and ALL MEMBER(s) OF THE KENNEL.
On FEBRUARY 1st, we will put together the registered list from this post and those kennels and those kennels only will be eligible for yearend awards for KENNEL OF THE YEAR (KOY).
**NOTE- THIS REGISTERY IS FOR KENNEL OF THE YEAR PURPOSES ONLY!! DOES NOT AFFECT ANY AWARDS FOR HOUND OF THE YEAR, SIRE OF THE YEAR OR DAM OF THE YEAR….
Additionally, you may see YOUR KENNEL LISTED IN THE UPDATES DURING THE YEAR EVEN IF YOU ARE NOT REGISTERED BUT UNLESS YOU ARE REGISTERED HERE BY JANUARY 31,2024 YOUR KENNEL WILL BE ELIMINATED AT THE END OF THE YEAR WHEN WE FIGURE THE FINAL TOTALS FOR THE AWARDS.
