About US

Welcome to Southern Cross Flyball Club!
We're a small, family-friendly club in Western Sydney's Fairfield district, united by our love of dogs. We believe in enriching our dogs' lives by giving them a job to do and there is no better, or more exciting job than flyball!
​
Though we train at Fairfield Showground in Prairiewood, our club competes in Australian Flyball Association (AFA) competitions all over NSW and interstate, including at the annual Flyball Nationals Championships. 

Training with SX

If you're looking for a fun, new way to bond with your best mate you've come to the right place. We welcome dogs of all sizes, shapes and speeds to come and play flyball with us, from puppies beginning age-appropriate foundation work, to senior racing dogs and everything in between. We understand that different dogs learn in different ways, so we use a range of reward based training and socialisation methods. Our instructors will work one-on-one with you and your dog to tailor a training program that will cater to your dog's needs.

We train on Thursday nights from 6:30pm at Fairfield Showground in Prairiewood. 

Upcoming SX Events

If you want to more about flyball, coming along to a demonstration, exhibition or race meeting is the best way to see the sport in the fur! Southern Cross participates in a number of events throughout the year, and hosts several of our throughout the year.

Flyball is back in Sydney over Easter! For the first time this year, SX is bringing flyball to the Fairfield Easter Fair for a massive two day competition. With free admission and parking for spectators as well as rides, food and fireworks every night, the Fair will be a great day out for the whole family and the biggest flyball comp in Western Sydney.

Cool Runnings Flyball Competition

July Sunday 26
Fairfield Showground| Prairiewood
Cool Runnings is the comp which is closest to the hearts of SX members, held in memory of founding member, Les Scott. Cool Runnings is smaller than our other comps as it isn't held at an agricultural show, so it's a great opportunity to see flyball in a quieter setting, even if the dogs don't always cooperate in keeping it quiet! 

The SX ALL STARS

Southern Cross caters to all life stages, from puppyhood, to geriatrics. Our dogs are the heart of our club and so from the moment they come home, all the way through their foundation training, racing careers and into retirement (where our Racing All Stars get promoted to the role of "Gazebo Security" at competitions), they are included in club activities.
