About Us
The Northern Bytes Flyball Team runs under British Flyball Association Rules – we Train, Race and have fun! We are the oldest team still running in the North West Team, registered in 1997.
We currently train in a section of Prince’s Park in Salford that is easily accessible J11 off the M60.
Please do check out our active Facebook page and our Instagram for the latest on what we’re up to as a team.
Bytes was originally founded by Doreen Smith around 1993. She ran the team for many years, running 16 of her own dogs (consisting of Collies, Terriers, Spaniels and crossbreeds) as well as helping out many other teams during this time.
Doreen owned Rosie the Yorkshire terrier who ran her little legs off and was the first terrier to reach 1000 points and she is still the BFA’s top Yorkie holding the most points!
Doreen has recently decided to hang her flyball boots up and retire from the sport, but she still continues to support and cheer the team on from afar.
