What’s been accomplished in 2019:
• 20th Century Fund awarded $18,000 for upland bird habitat improvement.
• Roll out of the Top Amateur Handler Award Program
• AFTCA Standards for Field Trial Procedure, Judicial Practice, Handler and Bird Dog Performance was updated and republished.
• Initiation the exciting and important Land Contribution Program
The Board of Trustees is excited to bring a new program to member clubs of the AFTCA. This is a potential tax benefit to landowners that allows clubs to host trials on their land and use their facilities. During the 2019 annual meeting, the AFTCA Board of Trustees approved a new program to provide private landowners an In-kind Tax-deductible Contribution for the value of the preparation and use of their land and facilities for the purpose of conducting a field trial by a current AFTCA member club.
With the new field trial season underway, NOW is a good time for individual members and those managing AFTCA member clubs to renew their memberships if you have not yet done so. Please login to your account and renew today…and good luck to all handlers and their dogs this fall!
The AFTCA Secure Membership Renewal system has been updated and greatly simplified. Simply login to your Individual Member Account and click on your Member Profile.

To all concerned,
It has come to the AFTCA’s attention that a past member is posting racist and defamatory remarks on social media while attempting to promote the AFTCA.
