The MVM point schedule appears below. Exhibitors may enter as many venues and classes within a venue as they wish, but only the single highest number of points resulting from one class within a venue is counted for that venue\u2019s points. For example, in the III. Obedience\/Rally venue, qualifying in Open in Obedience earns 4 points and qualifying in Master in Rally earns 5 points. The single highest number of points earned from this venue would be 5 points.  MVM points are not added together within any one venue, only between the different venues. The bottom of the MVM Point Schedule has the tie-breaking criteria. 

The MVM Chair will track the results based on the Show\/Trial Secretary\u2019s results. The Most Versatile Malinois Award and Reserve Most Versatile Malinois Award  are determined after all MVM events have been completed.
