Mark F. Przybylski

In over 30 years in Schutzhund and a member of the United Schutzhund Clubs of America, I have had many personal accomplishments that I am proud of as so many of us do, however, the things that I have done to help and hopefully improve the organization are more important to me personally.

As USA Director of Judges, I introduced and incorporated women into the USA Performance and Breed Judges program that are respected and very much in demand as judges.

Along with past USA Judges committees, we have streamlined the USA Performance Judges program for USA Apprentice Judges and closed some loopholes that it had and made it more comprehensive.

In my tenure as USA Director of Judges, we have named 11 USA Performance Judges and 3 Breed Judges.

The USA Performance Judges program has also added a fast track for judges from other organizations to join the ranks of USA Performance and Breed Judges.

I have also received requests from judges and members from other organizations and foreign countries to join the USA Judges program and currently have accepted one individual from the SV as a USA Performance Judge and another from Canada as a USA Apprentice Performance Judge.

USA Judges are constantly being requested for foreign assignments and this has not been just the arena for a few, but all USA Judges with the qualifications are included in the selection process for International events.

The USA Judges committee has become a more viable entity and communicates frequently amongst one another and all decisions are discussed and arrived at through majority opinion with each person being given their say and respected in what they say.

Increased attendance at the annual USA Judges meeting which has helped to provide for more consistent judging overall by all of our USA Judges.

Also, with respect to the USA Judges meeting, have tried to help USA financially by putting a cap on expenses per judge for this meeting instead of trying to cover all expenses incurred by attending this meeting.

We have instituted a USA Judges Teaching Judges program which should provide better mentors for our USA Judge Apprentices.

We have also made it a constant that USA as other countries already did, make sure that USA Judges are the major factor in selecting the USA World team by being two of the three judges at every one of our national events, thereby insuring that we as an organization choose our world team.

There may be things that I have left out, but the above are there to highlight some of the things I have or tried to accomplish, thank you for your time and cooperation in the past and most of all, your friendship through the years.
