French Ring
The North American Ring Association is the sole US governing body for French Ring. Created in 1987 under the auspices of France's Société Centrale Canine (SCC), NARA writes the US rulebook in line with SCC standards, sanctions every US trial, certifies judges and decoys, runs Regional Championships and the annual NARA Cup, and selects the US team for international competition. Dogs on a Standard scorebook can go on to compete in France; Blue Dog scorebook dogs cannot. There is no parallel US French Ring organization with an independent title structure.
