History

The New England Trailblazers Flyball team was formed in September of 1999. Our first flyball tournament together was in November of 1999. We hosted Vermont's First Flyball Tournament on May 19 & 20, 2001 (for information about this year's tournament visit our tournament section). Our team members are from Vermont, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts. In addition to flyball, most of our members participate in a variety of other dog sports including Agility, Obedience, and Herding.

The New England Trailblazers are: Jo-Anne Dolle, Michelle Gorbutt, Eileen Hoskin, Scott & Kathryn Stein (team captains), Melissa Wilkinson, and future boxloaders Noah Stein and Hunter Daris.
