2012 RISING STAR OF THE YEAR RULES
These rules should be read in conjunction with
rules covering all pointscore competitions.
The Rising Star of the Year 2012 competition will be used to recognise National, Island and Breed leaders for the up and coming youngsters (up to 24 months of age).
Eligible results can be entered from any All Breeds Championship Show or Specialty Championship Show in New Zealand.
- Only the best 40 results (points value) will be included. The pointscore system will automatically select the best 40 results from the results that are submitted.
- Tie-Breaker - In the event that 2 or more dogs have the same number of points, the dog with the most 'Class in Show' wins (out of their top 40 results) will be placed first. If there is still not an outright leader, the number of 'Class in Group' wins (out of the top 40 results) will be counted.
- The following results are eligible to be entered and the points that will be allocated are displayed.
Points will be awarded depending on the total entry for the show. You will need to submit the total entry when entering your results.

- Only the highest award per exhibit per show will be counted.
- The following rules apply to the Island component of the Rising Star competition.
- For the purposes of the competition, a dog's 'island location', (herein referred to as the 'resident island') will be defined as the island where the dog has been resident for the majority of the year (when actively being shown).
- The island tally will be calculated on the top 40 shows that were held on the dog's resident Island. This could result in different shows being counted in the island and national component of the competition.
- Up to 4 results from shows held on the opposite island to the dog's 'resident island' can be included in the top 40 state tally for a dog. The system will automatically include these if necessary to give the dog the best total.
- In cases where it is difficult to define the 'resident island', we will use our discretion to determine the 'resident island' based on the facts presented. This decision will be final and no correspondence will be entered into.
Certificates
will be awarded in the Rising Star Competition for
- National Winner
- Each Island Winner
- Each Group Winner (National and Island)
- Each Breed winner (in the individual breed Rising Star tally)
