The search area was a small meeting room in a community hall. Laid out with tables and chairs in a square set up in the middle of the room with various shelving units, 2 radiators, a piano and other smaller items around the perimeter.

The hide was located on the furthest edge of the 2nd radiator going away from the start area along the right hand wall. This was down low and accessible for all dogs entered. Every dog found the hide with a couple of false alerts in different parts of the room. Teams scored highly with results quite tight for placings. A mix of free and on lead searching with most having some sort of search plan.

Nice to see newer teams in the placings and coming out to try Scent Ops for the first time too.
