NATIONAL WORKING TERRIER FEDERATION (N.W.T.F.)

 PLEASE NOTE CHANGE OF VENUE:  Due to the 2010 CLA Game Fair being held at Ragley Hall there will be no other game fairs held there during this year. As a result, this year's NWTF Championship and Open Terrier Show will be held at the Shropshire Game Fair, Chetwynd Park, Newport, Near Telford, Shropshire. It's the normal Ragley weekend date, same Game Fair organisers, same terrier show team and the same excellent facilities.

Chetwynd Park does not have it's own postcode, so for satellite navigation systems, enter Newport, Shropshire and select the B5062 Edgmond Road. The show is signposted from Newport. Alternatively click on the following google maps link and enter your postcode for a custom set of directions  google map

The N.W.T.F. Open Working Terrier Show will commence at 11:30 am, there will be ringside parking available for exhibitors and the Best in Show and Reserve will also qualify for the Champion of Champions Show held in the Main Arena later during the same day. Terriers which have already qualified for the Champion of Champions Show will also be eligible for entry into the Open Working Terrier Show.
