Beanz Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 Do 1 Loft Races issue a balance sheet or are they just a licence to print money for the organisers. Paul
gangster Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 they should all print a balance sheet to prove all expenditure
Guest TAMMY_1 Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 I agree they should do but do they? well have you been entered in to any and if so were you given a balance sheet ?
Jeremy Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 The RPRA One loft race each year put the balance sheet into the BHW.
kaybee Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 I think the RPRA print a balance sheet for their members too see. Can't answer for any other one loft races but the Edinburgh International OLR will issue a balance sheet to everyone competing in the races.
Beanz Posted March 20, 2008 Author Report Posted March 20, 2008 Yes I did enter one and no I was not given a balance sheet for that so that is the reason I am asking to see if that is the norm. Paul

Whats it called Cumbernauld Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 Would be surprised if they are not,though must admit i know little about them, other than following closely the new one in Edinburgh.Indeed it does this site proud. One thing I was wondering, if it is possible with todays tech, if the return of the birds can be filmed live as it happens. Now that would be somethingeles Just a thought I sure someone will tell me.

Rab Smith a good point about returning birds being filmed, quite sure somebody there will have a video camera, would be great to see it on here if you can't get to see the race itself
kaybee Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 The Edinburgh International OLR is hoping to have the birds being filmed webcam style and as the birds go through the bobwires and over the BRICON ETS pad the ring numbers will be displayed on the internet in 'real time'
Whats it called Cumbernauld Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 This great for our sport takes us to whole new level. Can only be good for our future. Exciting times ahead Happy days Rab Smith
Guest Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 Most of the 1 loft races are being run as a private business so they dont put out a bal. sheet it would be nice but you dont need to be the brain of britain to count it up no of birds/activated x how much the entry less what it costs to train/feed etc yes there is money in it for them but they are taking the risks and doing all the work and Kenny will tell you its not easy money and 1/2 bad tosses and you are in sh-- street without a shovel i say best of luck to them where can you get that kind of winnings in our sport to-day?
chichichi Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 we have entered in one,, don't know about a balence sheet but all monies are allocated before the races start,, also a one of fee and all the birds are activated,, no need to activate any more,, so no hiding monies.. first one entered and fingers crossed first one won.. goodluck to all in the one loft races.. ant
gangster Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 the pigeon chat 1 loft race is being filmed so i think people can get it on there computers as it happens thats thecplan andy has informed me...
gangster Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 just a thought does europa publish any type of balance sheet??? even 2 entrants...just a thought???????
Guest mikkey Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 whats a 1 loft race a daft question from a dummy
gangster Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 whats a 1 loft race its a race open to everyone to enter all birds fly too 1 loft only and depending on the final birds in determines the prize money...even cars cabn be won...ect a daft question from a dummy
gangster Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 ..you send your youngster or youngsters as soon as they are eating themselves to the 1 loft and the team there take control of there well being they are settled along with others sent and are soon flying around with all the other birds...training medication vaccination is done by the guys running the race regular updaits ect are readily provided you can even pool them in the hotspot races and main race...
Whats it called Cumbernauld Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 Without doubt they are good for our sport,yes there will always be some who talk of money made. However where else can one win this kind of money, in our sport today.after all the feeding and training, and time put in, there may be £50 in a club on a sat.There will of course be clubs with a lot more than that but there are also clubs with less than £50 Wish the one loft race lofts all the best in this coming season. It is they who are laying the foundation, for the way in which our sport will go, in the years to come. Cheers Rab Smith

Whats it called Cumbernauld Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 The Edinburgh, one loft race link is at the top of the page.this will let you know more detail (It is interesting stuff) Enjoy Mikkey Cheers# Rab Smith
