The Rabbit Hopping Society of Australia has a facebook group.
Hello Everyone and welcome to the Rabbit Hopping Society of Australia website.
Rabbit hopping is a family friendly sport which you and your bunny compete in different courses together. We offer 4 different types of courses which consist of: Straight Course, Crooked Course, High Jump and Long Jump. The runs are judged by the Rules and Regulations which we go by total faults first and then total time second.
Competing in rabbit hopping is a great way to bond with your bunny and get some great exercise whilst socialising with other rabbit enthusiast at the same time. To get involved you can bring your bunny along to any of our competitions or training days when they are held and we will help to teach you how to handle your rabbit through the course with other pieces of advice. At some shows we do allow the public to run through the course with our members rabbits in the breaks when they aren't too tired so this is another way to get involved.
