one loft race?


Recommended Posts

Posted

As you should all be aware our kids have a 'promote the sport club' on our website, I don't want to stand on Coxy's toes (with his breeder buyer) but if we could get together and get the birds here, our kids could race them as a one loft race.

 

this is how it would work for instance, someone puts a bird in and someone else buys it for £25, our kids then race it in the mighty Border amal. ( 8 races rangeing from 60 to 300 mile) all results will be placed on pigeon basics and our website. the best birds (1st 2nd and 3rd) averages over the season we split the money, 25% of takings to 1st place breeder,25%of takings 1st place buyer

                            15% of takings to 2nd place breeder,15% of takings to 2nd place buyer

                            10% of takings to 3rd place breeder, 10% of takings to 3rd place buyer.

 

This would really boost the sport, but I need numbers I'll close the poll at 8pm wed 7th feb.

have a think about it.

sorry m8 but i have given everyone the opportuntity to get the kids involved i have e-mailed webmaster and even sortd birds out with ppl and prizes and i have dontations frm loacal fanciers so im against it soz m8

dnt wan sound harsh here but the whole idea of what i was doin was to get the birds spread abwt the uk to see how the cope in different enviroments ect ect to see what peoples birds can really do they wpuld also b raced in the clubs against top fanciers not just a one loft race tht we always have on pb year in year out

I have to say, The wife thinks its a bad idea, shes worried about us being held resposible if something went wrong for instance, if we lost all the birds.

We'll leave the vote running but if we ALL decide to do it then we need RULES and REGULATIONS in place so we're not held responsible.

 

cheers

There wouldn't be any money made all the money would go to the best average 1st 2nd and 3rd bird of the season, none to me, none to charity.ALL back to the fanciers who enter.

we'll see how the poll goes and if it goes ahead coxy could run the sale side of it if he wants to.

We would have to check Things over about running it. I'll put pen to paper tommorow and see about some terms and conditions.

P.S. had a pm from coxy and its all sorted.

as for training, we would still have to train the kids birds anyways so we aint bothered about that. we can take them at same time as ours, we go 20 mile 6 days per week.

We could make the loft a little bigger, as I said we need numbers.

We've set wheels in motion this morning, but we've had a few obstacles in the way, I'll add the details to the forum tonite.
