The Panhandle Supersonics Flyballteam was formed in 2004 by Sharon Aizer and
her canine companion, Dixie (ONYX*), who introduced
the sport to this area.
Sharon has since relocated, but we continue her Flyball legacy. We are a competitive team and while we strive for our dogs and
handlers to perform to the best of their ability, our primary goal is to have a
good time with our teammates - human and canine - and to play safely and
smartly.
Flyball is an amateur sport and our hobby. To that end, these are the
priorities (in order of importance) of the Panhandle Supersonics.
Health and well-being of our dogs and handlers
Friendship
Improving our relationships with our dogs
Exemplifying responsible dog ownership and sportsmanship
Maximizing athletic potential of our dogs
Accumulating Flyball points by running clean
Improving on team speed
Winning our division in a tournament
Aside from racing, the Supersonics also perform Flyball demonstrations at
local festivals and events as a way of promoting the sport in our community. The
demonstrations give our inexperienced dogs an opportunity to race in a
non-competitive situation in preparation for tournament racing.
*Dixie accumulated over 20,000 points, earning her ONYX title in April 2005
in Perry, Georgia.
