2016 World Agility Championship Report

IFCS Overall Medal Standings

Team Russia dominated the podium this year, demonstrating consistently throughout the week their superiority in strategizing courses and training, balancing needed handling technique with placing trust in their dogs to perform through tight situations without handlers close proximity guidance. This was the winning formula for most medalists, regardless of country.
