Tips for NADAC Weavers and Weave Pole Training
By Andrea Dexter Weavers is a NADAC game that is simply a course or sequence designed by the judge and consisting of weaves, tunnels, and hoops as the only obstacles.Within the sequence, the team encounters multiple sets of weaves in different locations. The total number of obstacles is generally on the shorter side as compared with a Regular or Jumpers course. Typically the Elite course, see Figure 1, has two 12-pole sets of weaves and the team runs one set twice for a total of 36 poles on course. Also typically the Open teams run the same course where the set of poles run twice is swapped out for six poles (which are then repositioned to match the middle six of the original 12) as shown in Figure 2. The Novice teams also run

the same course where the last set of 12 poles is swapped out for six as shown in Figure 3. Because the course is designed with enough space for 12 poles, when six are used, a longer gap between obstacles before and after the weaves often occurs (sometimes the course is tweaked to adjust the spacing). Obviously you need a dog that is a skilled weaver for this game. The way Weavers courses are scored, re-attempting the weaves after a missed entry and anticipation and popping out are problematic because the time allowance for qualifying can be pretty tight and doesn’t accommodate a lot of futzing around at the weaves.
