Details as follows, we are running a one-loft race in conjunction with Pigeonbasics.com.(Disclaimer, Pigeonbasics.com will not be held responsible if any problems arise.) Each fancier who would like to take part, donates one young bird (the fancier would have to ensure it got here) then someone else buys each pigeon donated, for a fixed fee of £15. We would like to keep the price low to hopefully get some non-fanciers interested. Then kids (aged between 5 and 10) will race these pigeons with Todmorden homing society which is in the Border amal. Each pigeon will be named so we can record their performances on our website and at Pigeonbasics.com.
The loft has room for 40 pigeons so it would be a strictly first come, first served basis. As you should now be aware, 40 pigeons making £15 each would be a total of £ 600. We will send the 40 birds to every race with Todmorden homing society (7 races ranging from 60 to 220 mile) and the results would be based on the best average pigeons over the season.
Prizes,
Best average for season (1st) Breeder (the one person donated it) would get £150
Best average for season (1st ) Buyer (the person who bought it for £15) would get £150
2nd Best average for season (2nd) Breeder would get £100
2nd Best average for season (2nd) Buyer would get £100
3rd Best average for season (3rd) Breeder would get £50
3rd Best average for season (3rd) Buyer would get £50
RULES;
If you do take part each bird needs transferring to H & G Waters and will become their property.
H & G Waters or Carrhouse lofts,’ Promote the sport club’ will not be held responsibly for any losses of the birds.
You can not buy your own bird back ( the person who donated can not buy his/her pigeon)
Also if racing is banned by Defra, All money will be returned to them who paid out.
I think I’ve covered everything, if I have missed anything feel free to pm me.
