Twenty-eight years have now gone by since
the first Nubia Memorial Cup was presented
in 1995 in Canada by Jack McGuffin, who
flew from California to meet the first winner
at a show in Toronto (Credit Valley Kennel
Club).
During 23 years until the last winner in 2018,
Sloughis were active in all 3 sports, oval
racing, straight racing and lure coursing,
traveling to events across the country from
as far as the West to the East coasts, paving
the way for full recognition in all American
sighthound sports, and the Nubia Cup was
awarded every year.
The plaques are full of names and the trophy
is now retired.
