thats a start

[ron123]

i think all members in each club should ask at least 2 people they know with pets ect to be at there loft when racing or tossing birds to show them the excitement of the sport and even give them abird to race in there loft then slowly get them involved and join with help. what yea think more new blood ay

[Guest frank dooman]

great ideas and from new starters maybe we should make any new members in our clubs in charge of getting people interisted in our sport new  blood and keen well done

[Guest bakes]

 

thats a start

go for it involve him as much as possible you take them training and ask him to wait at the lofts and get them in
