2026 Junior Handler Program

As we approach NASDA’s 10th Anniversary, we are proud to announce a series of significant enhancements to the Junior Handler Program for the 2026 Regional and Invitational Championships. These updates reflect NASDA’s continued commitment to investing in the next generation of dog sport enthusiasts—youth whose passion, dedication, and sportsmanship represent the future of our organization.

Expanded Support for Junior Handlers

Beginning in 2026, NASDA’s goal is to provide low- or no-cost entry fees for all Junior Handlers competing at both the Regional and Invitational events. Juniors will compete and advance within their own dedicated Junior Handler division, ensuring an environment designed to support confidence, skill-building, and success.
