New Point Score System.
Starting in June 2022, we are happy to announce that we are introducing an exciting new Point Score System, with more awards available for all.
Goals
- More simplified and easier to manage
- More awards, not just the best of each coat
How the new system will work
Points will be allocated at each Point Score Show as follows:
Best of Breed 5 points
Runner Up 3 points
Challenge 2 points
Reserve Challenge 1 points
For example if your dog wins Best of Breed it gets a 5 points total – under the old system the points system was more complicated, and points were also allocated for awards in group and in show, which sometimes meant a trip or two to Dogs SA to look through marked catalogues.
This system would mean we only need a record of the breed judging – making the record keeping much simpler.
Rising Star
This year we are also introducing a Rising Star competition.
Points will be allocated at each Point Score Show for Baby Puppy, Minor Puppy, Puppy and Junior Classes as follows:
Class wins 1 point
Class of Breed 2 point
For example, if you win Junior class and win Junior of Breed you will get 2 points total at that show.
At shows where the Group 1-4 system is used, they often don’t award class of breed for Minor Puppy or Junior, in which case only 1 point can be allocated at those shows for Minor and Junior classes.
Awards

- Runner Up &/or Opposite sex longcoat

All owners of the dog must be members of the Chihuahua Club of SA Inc.
