Canine Hoopers of America (CHA) is a national dog sport organization based in the United States that coordinates hoopers trials, training, and competitive events. Hoopers is a low-impact dog sport in which dogs navigate a course of hoops, barrels, tunnels, and gates guided by their handlers’ verbal cues and hand signals from a distance. The sport is ideal for dogs and handlers of all physical abilities — handlers can direct their dogs without running, making it accessible to those with mobility limitations. CHA offers membership registration, competition levels, certified judges, and training facility listings across the country. The organization exclusively represents the USA in the World Hoopers Open Championship. CHA maintains a data center with member records, point history, and event information.
