This is a list of proposed scenarios for both Olympiad and street elite competition. 

Minor adjustments, theme additives may be chosen by hosting club or judges. 

Each scenario should be recognizable to both competitors and decoys, however. 

Street elite trials should, as often as possible, utilize those scenarios that focus on handler protection. 

Any of these scenarios may be turned into a call off, if desired by judges, or hosting clubs.
