WHOC
World Hoopers Open Chanmpionship (WHOC) is born from an idea of Alfonso Sabbatini, who is the legal owner of the name, acronym, logo, concept, framework, definitions, rules & regulations and everything related to it.

The mission is to provide a framework for the ultimate in hoopers competition, showcasing the highest level human/canine partnership, sportsmanship, and athleticism; and enabling all dogs, whether pedigreed or not, to compete in an environment that is focused on the sport of hoopers.

WHOC will be an annual event with the aim to be hosted by orgnisers in a different country each year

Nations can send their teams to participate. Entry for teams from each country must come from only one national team leader. The national team leader wishing to seek recognition to bring its team to WHOC 2025 should contact us at info@whoc.dog

The national team manager is responsible for writing a document that explains how people in the country can become members of the WHOC national team. Each country’s team selection process must be non-discriminatory with regard to both handlers and dogs, and must be approved by the WHOC organising committee.


If your country is not represented yet, you can participate is individual too
