BHW/INFC Single Bird Challenge

 

By this weekend all INFC members will have received their statement of accounts, also included in the envelope is their BHW/INFC Single Bird Challenge entry form, these should be completed and returned to me by 17th March along with the £5 entry fee. Also included in the envelope is the Robin Duddy Trophy entry form, to win this trophy a member nominates three birds on their Yearling National entry sheet, it is the first of these three birds which counts, they also nominate three birds on their Penzance Young Bird National sheet and again the first bird home counts towards the two race average, the total cost of entry is £10. The closing date for entries is the race marking night of the Yearling National, Monday 7th June. If any member wants to send both entries together they can do so. Any potential new members or any member with any questions should contact me on Tel: 07876 157706 on details of how to enter. David Black.

I found that amazing TBH, i'd of thought there could be 2 or 3 marking stations and clubs should be able to be clock stations too.

Would also be nice if they discussed a website where you could have a look at results etc.  As far as i can see it's the only nfc in the british isles that doesn't have a dedicated site which is a bit embarrassing and frustrating.  When you do manage to find a result on one of the other sites the information given is basic to say the least i.e. fancier and velocity and to work out who finished where you need to sit down with a tally chart beside you and tick off the velocities as you run your finger back and forward accross the screen.

 

A challenge - look for a detailed full result for 2009 Kings Cup - the country's most prestegious race - if you can find one that gives details of member, i.e. name, birds sent, ring number, distance to loft, aft etc. please put up the link as i can't find it.

 

Thanks and good luck!
