Achievements Future Tournaments Hyper Flight is a very small, highly-competitive flyball club from (mainly) the Dallas, Texas area.  We typically attend 7-11 tournaments a year.  About half of the tournaments we attend are held in Texas, but we travel all over the country seeking the best competition.  In recent years, we have attended tournaments in Alabama, Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Tennessee. We only race in U-FLI events.  We began playing U-FLI because U-FLI treats all competitors fairly and equally, but there are many other reasons why we continue to play in this organization.  One important reason we compete in U-FLI is that the level of competition in Division 1 is unmatched.  In our opinion, if you want to compete against the best, you have to compete in U-FLI.  Although we compete only in U-FLI events, we have many friends that race in NAFA events, and we believe that the vast majority of NAFA competitors are great people.      We strongly believe that flyball races should be won or lost in the racing lane.   We have no interest in trying to get our fellow competitors disqualified in flyball judicial proceedings (and thankfully, none of our fellow U-FLI competitors seem to have an interest in this either).  We will try every way--within the rules--to beat you in the racing lane, but when the race is over, we will congratulate you if you beat us; that's how flyball should be played.  We are completely uninterested in flyball politics. We believe it is important to give back to the flyball community by hosting tournaments and helping other clubs host tournaments.  We hosted the first (2006) and second (2007) annual U-FLI Championships.  In March 2010, we will host our 17th tournament in a little over three years. We are not actively seeking new members at this time.  We might be interested in accepting an experienced flyball competitor as a new member, but we are probably not the right club for a newcomer to the sport.  For one reason, our practices typically are at least seven hours in duration, and we typically take over a year to train a dog to the point it can race in a tournament.  There are other clubs in the Dallas area that have much shorter practices and that will allow a new dog to race in competition sooner than Hyper Flight would.  If you want to learn the sport of flyball, we recommend you take lessons (see below) or contact clubs that specialize in training new handlers.  We want the sport of flyball to grow, especially in the north Texas area, but we believe we can best contribute to that growth by concentrating on hosting tournaments and helping others host tournaments.
