Tommy Thomas Memorial
Amateur Handler Awards

This award is being donated in memory of Tommy Thomas and was developed with the express purpose of promoting sportsmanship and to recognize and reward amateur handlers for their successes in the sport of field trialing. Amateurs are the life’s blood of our sport!

The awards will acknowledge the top Amateur Handler / Dog combination each year. Awards will be presented for the Top Amateur Handler in all Amateur Gun Dog stakes, and Amateur All Age Stakes. The Awards will be presented at the Nationals in Booneville, during the respective Championships. Points may be accumulated for 30 minute and one hour amateur AKC sanctioned stakes run by Regional Brittany Clubs, sponsored by the American Brittany Club or AKC sanctioned stakes held for Brittanys only.

Sponsorship for this award will be from private donations.

Points will be calculated by the schedule below.

Points for both awards will be calculated from the fall season of a given year until the end of the spring trial season.
