The KCP Cup Match is a fun, informal single-elimination (knockout) competition to encourage participation, sportsmanship and fellowship. It is not intended to evaluate dogs for breeding or titles.
Two dogs compete each round; the winner advances until a single Cup Winner is declared. Dogs of different breeds, ages and sexes may compete against each other.
Format
- Normally limited to 20 dogs, first come first served.
- After entries close, a random draw sets the first-round pairings — with no regard to breed, age, sex, previous awards or titles.
- Each round pairs two dogs; the Judge selects one winner who advances, the other is eliminated.
Awards
- Cup Winner and Runner-up.
- Additional commemorative trophies or prizes at the Organising Committee's discretion.
