The BFA (British Flyball Association) is the governing body for Flyball in this country.
Membership allows your dog to earn Flyball points for every "open" race they run and complete in under 30 seconds, these points count towards your dog earning certificates of achievement (ask Chris or I for the full rules / details).
To be allowed in a race ring to help out or compete (apart from at starters) you need to be a BFA member... the cost is not much (£10.50 for the rest of the year as at May) and the price of the joint membership also covers additional family members.
The form can be found here ...

... if your interested in competing or helping out now / in the future it is worth completing sooner rather that later as there is a 2 week period of grace where you cannot compete without being a member (so if one day you wake up and think "hey, what the heck, lets race for the first time next week" you will not be allowed... and if you did race the whole team would loose their points for that day).
Leave "Your BFA Number" blank... and enter "Rooky Racers" as the team and team number as "202".
Cheers,
Andy
