Foreign Judge and Decoy Requests:
- A foreign International FCI judge must have permission by that judge’s FCI National Organization to take foreign assignments. To secure this approval, clubs must send their International FCI judge requests to our Judges Committee Chair who will then submit the request to our National Organization, AWDF. The FCI Judge’s National Organization will only approve requests made by our National Organization (AWDF).
- Foreign Decoy requests must be sent to our Decoy Committee Chair for approval.

The Secretary will approve the trial within one week within the stated guidelines. You may submit a trial-themed image to be used to advertise the trial on the USMRA website to webmaster@usmondioring.org. Please ensure that you have the right to use the images or artwork that you submit.
