The first official coursing meeting was held in 1776 at <a href="/wiki/Swaffham" title="Swaffham">Swaffham</a>, <a href="/wiki/Norfolk" title="Norfolk">Norfolk</a>. The rules of the Swaffham Coursing Society, started by <a href="/wiki/Earl_of_Orford" title="Earl of Orford">Lord Orford</a>, specified that only two greyhounds were to course a single hare.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Coursing by proxy with an artificial lure was introduced at <a href="/wiki/Hendon" title="Hendon">Hendon</a>, on September 11, 1876. Six dogs raced over a 400-yard straight course, chasing an artificial hare. This was the first attempt to introduce mechanical racing to the UK; however it did not catch on at the time.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The oval track and mechanical hare were introduced to Britain in 1926, by Charles Munn, an American, in association with Major Lyne-Dixson, a key figure in coursing. Finding other supporters proved to be rather difficult, and with the General Strike of 1926 looming, the two men scoured the country to find others who would join them. Eventually they met <a href="/wiki/Alfred_Critchley" title="Alfred Critchley">Brigadier-General Critchley</a>, who in turn introduced them to Sir <a href="/wiki/William_Gentle" title="William Gentle">William Gentle</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Between them they raised £22,000 and launched the <a href="/wiki/Greyhound_Racing_Association" title="Greyhound Racing Association">Greyhound Racing Association</a>.
