Bird of the Year Competition 2010 The site has decided to do a small competition over the coming few weeks. If you have had a good performing bird /birds during 2010 then now is the chance to not only showcase this to your fellow members but also earn a wee bit of beer money for it. no entry limit The competition will be initially separated into the following categories 1st***Best performance(s) up to 350 miles.. WINNER OF THIS CLASS WAS ENTRY 8 2nd***Best performance(s) over 350 miles .. WINNER OF THIS CLASS WAS ENTRY 7 3rd*** best young bird performance's,, WINNER OF THIS CLASS WAS ENTRY 10 We think the categories are pretty self explanatory, basically if you have a pigeon that has had a good race or races in 2010 then send the results in for the relevant category. Each category will be judged separately and a prize awarded for each class. The winners from each class will then go forward to be judged for 'Pigeon-basics bird of the year' How to nominate your bird To enter the competition you need to keep an eye on the thread for entry dates etc. You will need to send the following information - *Pigeon Ring Number *Colour *Sex * Performances achieved (This can be at any level from club to International) * We also require the organisation for which result was achieved, birdage, distance and velocity *All class winners will be expected to supply secretary contact details for result verification * We don't need a picture yet but would definitely appreciate one of the class winners when the time is right *All entries should be sent to The Fifer or Old Yellow* Please do not openly disclose the identity of your entry into the competition - should this happen your entry will be disqualified. How the judging will take place * Simple every class will be judged by the members on an open thread - This thread will be for voting only with a simple vote of 'Bird 1' etc etc. In the case of a tie break - The owner of the winning birds will have the option to either draw the class and share the prize money or if both are in agreement then the winner will be judged by a random site member (who will be named after) The Final will also be judged on the site by the members of basics and in the case of a tie break a panel of three independent judges will decide the overall winner.
