The Q trial bookings are made online via www.ontheclock.com.au.
A greyhound nominated for an event at The Q must have successfully trialed out of the starting boxes to the satisfaction of QRIC stewards and/or QGRC officials, at the specific track it is to be nominated for (Q1, Q2 and/or Q Straight). See the full Q Commissioning Trials Terms and Conditions.
Accessing the Q Site
- Current entrance for trials is via Gate 1 – the first gate into the Q facility on the left travelling from Yamanto on Ipswich-Boonah Road.
- Ensure you follow directions given by QGRC and site staff.
Reminder:
- Only essential personnel are permitted on site – ensure you have a catcher for your dog/s and limit the number of staff who assist you to an essential level.
- Only attend at your designated trial time and leave the site promptly after the completion of your trial/s.
- All licensed participants booking trials acknowledge and agree to the Q Commissioning Trials Terms and Conditions. The QGRC reserve the right to refuse entry to participants breaching these Terms and Conditions and may report the matter to the QRIC.
