Sport Dog Record is on its way
Sport Dog Record is our companion platform for dog record keeping — where your dog's titles, career milestones, and stats will live. It's being built right now and isn't open yet, so there's nothing for you to do at the moment. Sport Dog Hub stays focused on running events and recording results, and once Sport Dog Record opens, your results here will feed into it automatically and you'll be able to connect each of your dogs. We'll say so here the moment it's ready.
For clubs
Preview your event page before it goes live
While an event is still a draft, you can open its page and see exactly what competitors will see, with a banner reminding you that nobody outside your club can. Cancelled events work the same way, so you can check what's showing after you call one off.
For clubs
Put a map on your event page
You can now add a map or photo of your site to an event — where the pool sits, where to unload, where to park. It appears with your location notes on the event page, and competitors can tap it to open it full size on their phone at the gate.
For clubs
More control over your event description
The event description now takes headings, larger or smaller text, and alignment, so a schedule or an important notice can stand out instead of disappearing into a wall of the same-sized text.
For competitors and clubs
Live events, one tap away
While an event is running, a red strip across the top of every page shows what's live right now, with a tap straight through to the running order, scoreboard, finals bubble, and the big-screen board.
For clubs
Weather delays
When rain or lightning stops the action, the crew can put the event on hold in one tap. Everyone following along, at the pool or from home, immediately sees that the event is paused instead of wondering why nothing is moving.
For clubs
Run more than one club from one account
If you help run several clubs, they now all live under a single login, with a switcher to move between them. Each club is reviewed on its own before it goes live.
For spectators
A better big-screen board
The Broadcast board now warms up with a competitor showcase in the hours before the first dog jumps, shows each dog's earlier jumps as it steps to the dock, keeps scratched dogs in their place in the order, and puts a Super V or Fetch It round on screen the moment the host starts it.
For competitors
Running orders stay in order
When a dog scratches or an entry is removed, the running order closes up behind it instead of leaving a hole, so the numbers you see at the pool match the sheet.
For competitors
Adding a splash keeps your earlier payment
Adding a run at check-in no longer wipes out the record of what you already paid, so nobody gets asked to pay twice for a splash they settled up on.
For everyone
Old event links keep working
If a club renames an event, links you already saved or shared still land on the right page.
For clubs
2026 is free
Every club runs its full 2026 season on Sport Dog Hub at no cost, with the whole feature set included.
