Default Agility course question

At the NADAC trial we attended last weekend, both judges used the same
courses both days. The course that we ran on Saturday, the other ring ran
on Sunday and vice versa. This means that if you were able to, you could
spend Saturday evening practicing the next day's courses.

I don't think I've ever had this happen before. Mostly we run AKC, so it
this a NADAC thing? Or is it just something that I either didn't notice or
that just didn't happen at the trials I went to? (We sometimes only run one
day so I could have just missed it.)

The judges didn't make individual copies of the courses available to the
entrants but they were posted for the whole weekend. It doesn't seem fair
to me. If I set up the course at home and ran Spenser through it twice,
he'd have it memorized and we'd avoid all traps - and a lot of handler
errors. (Any more than twice and Spenser would be bored and making up his
own course when faced with again.) Those two errors that kept us from
qualifying on the Gamblers and the Jumpers would not have happened even the
second time through.

Just wondering..............
