It’s not yet the updates you’re probably all waiting for, but it’s a bit more clarity on what is on offer and which day to expect it. We are *SO* close to starting to share the really good stuff - on-site camping bookings, the approved schedule, and JUDGES (who are all locked in and very excited by the way)!

Every effort is going into scheduling and cataloguing all these events in a way that ensures competitors will be able to get to all of them - including inputting every 👏🏼 single 👏🏼 entry 👏🏼 from the last two Nationals to see what kinds of clashes we’ve had in the past!

Stay tuned everybody 📻 💜

If you would like to help us deliver this event through either Event Sponsorship or as a Broadcast Partner, we would love to hear from you! Check out https://bccsa.org.au/national.html for more info!

🐾 Sponsor Spotlight – Gawler Greyhound Racing Club 🐾

We’re delighted to welcome Gawler Greyhound Racing Club as a Silver Partner of the 7th Border Collie National!

A long-standing part of the Gawler sporting community, the Gawler Greyhound Racing Club is home to Nixon's Function Centre, which will provide the setting for our Presentation Dinner on Sunday evening.

Even better, Nixon’s is located right on-site at the National, overlooking the sporting oval, giving us the perfect place to come together at the conclusion of four incredible days of competition without ever really leaving the heart of the event.

Our Presentation Dinner promises to be one of the highlights of the National - bringing competitors, judges, supporters and friends together to celebrate the achievements of Border Collies across all disciplines, recognise our major award winners, and enjoy one final evening together before we farewell the 7th National.

We’re incredibly grateful to have the support of another local sporting organisation as we prepare to welcome Border Collie enthusiasts from across Australia to Gawler.

The best part?

You don’t need to spend $7,000 to own one.

For just $20, you could be the lucky winner.
