Membership

Notes

The various branches of the Utility Gundog Society maintain individual memberships, there are separate joining processes and fees for each branch. Membership to one branch does not confer membership to the other branches.

Members gain preference in trial draws and preferential entry fees to events. Members from any branch can enter the 2 Day Open Trial.

All the registered owners of a dog must be members of the branch in order for the dog to participate in the society events. Joint membership is offered by some branches to allow for registered owners to be co-members, this does not however allow both joint members to participate concurrently. For this two single memberships are required. Joint membership is not offered by the Kent & East Sussex and the Surrey, West Sussex and Hampshire branches.

Non members can enter any advertised event, with the exception of the All Ages FT and GWT Area Finals, members will get preference in any draws.

Before entering any society events please be sure to read the UGS Field Trial & Gundog Working Test Regulations in conjunction with the Kennel Club ‘J Regs’.

Spaniel events only require membership to one of the branches.
