National Sheep Dog Trials Championships

Sheep Dog Trials are a highly-competitive and challenging sport. Sheep Dog Trials represent a fascinating insight into Australia's rural life with a compelling spectator experience. Sheep Dog Trials are an example of extraordinary team work between dog and handler.

The objectives of the National Sheep Dog Trials are to:
- Promote the welfare of sheep, dogs and humans (and in that order)
- Promote wide human interest in all classes of sheep dogs and to secure proper appreciation and recognition of their place and use in human society and industry; and
- Promote, in every way, the general improvement of the standard, breeding, working and exhibition of sheep dogs.

The Duke of Gloucester Sash was presented to the National Sheep Dog Trial Association in 1945 by His Royal Highness, Prince Henry Duke of Gloucester during his tenure as Governor General of Australia from 1944 to 1947. The Duke was the younger brother of King George 6th and Uncle of Queen Elizabeth 2nd.

The Queen and Duke of Edinburgh attended the National Sheep Dog Trial Championships on Finals day, Saturday 26 April 1970 and witnessed the Finals competition. The Queen then presented the Sash to the winner of the National Open Trial, Mr. Bob Ross and his dog Yulong Russ.

Every day of the National Sheep Dog Trials is open to spectators. Entry is $7.50 for adults. Under 16s free entry.

TBC - Polocrosse Carnival at Hall - Hall Polocrosse Club

Polocrosse has long been known as the "King of the One Horse Sports". Having originated in Australia (indeed in New South Wales) in 1939, we are proud to call it an Australian made game, which is now played internationally. Polocrosse is an action-packed, team sport often referred to as Rugby on horseback. It is a family orientated sport with grades to cater for all levels of ability from the novice through to highly experienced and competitive riders. Polocrosse is unique in that it is a sport in which the whole family can play at the one event, often in the same team. Players range from 5 Years of age through to just over 80.

The Polocrosse Association of NSW aims to provide players and supporters with all the information you need to get the most out of polocrosse. Our website also contains useful information for people interested in learning more about polocrosse. This site is regularly updated with the latest news, upcoming events.
