Change Of Rule

[Tony C]

If you could change one rule in your Club, Fed, Region or Union what would it be?

 

It could be that its outdated, restrictive or just plain unfair.

if someone has no history of trouble making or bad debt and are within the boundaries of club or fed they should be accepted as a member..

 

its ridiculous in a dying sport that perfectly good members are being refused from clubs or feds..

thats the one thats needs addressing , you hear of clubs folding around a good club flier and they cant get in any other clubs but same club reforms with near enough same members under a different name and good flier cant join , to me if you cant win without the true competision been in yer club , your only kidding yoursens and yer mates by shutting out the good fanciers thats only fault is to be better than the competision that there club mates are , bring back the sportsmanship , if they win , then learn to loose with dignity shake there hand and try harder next week , then next week they might be shaking yours

fed tickets to the first fifteen in each section you could be number 16 in your section you dont get a fed ticket and beating every other bird in the other sections . it should be a straight first 45 in fed its like the olympic 100 mts 1st, 2nd 3rd all americans win but they say that we must put an african nation in the medals so put the african who was 4th in third position . straight first 45

location and wind gives every one a chance of a fed ticket if your flying against your section more of an even keel

and if your 16th in your section try harder against the guys around you jmo

That the secretary's salary is decided by the members of the club rather than a small committee who can develop a close relationship with their fellow colleague (the secretary).

Would have to agree with Frank123, wind determines.

 

Another fancier has put it to me that perhaps a fairer way would be to have section positions pro rata to the entry at that race, i.e.

Minimum of 15 section tickets each week with a guaranteed 1 fed position for every 100 pigeons sent, were as the way it is at present our section could have an entry of 3000 birds and only have the 15 allocated places available that you have talked about which is 1 prize for every 200 pigeons, this is a little unfair for the fanciers that set their goal at the shorter races with big birdages.

[bewted]

lot of good things said here,but,only one problem,,,,most fanciers are there own worst enemy !!!

[ovy1255]

the politics of a major organisation can be a minefield with fellow deligates being the bombs,i am lucky to be in the NEHU as all persons are accepted as members with only sensable rules to stop membership not how good they fly.so what would the nehu be like if we stopped our best flyers -we would have our second rate flyers in top place so is this how we should look at any results put up by any organisation that allows clubs to vet its members or potential members by performance.so who topped the combine by default?

ONLY THE MEMBERS CAN BRING ABOUT CHANGE BY VOICEING THEIR VIEWS AND PUTTING PROPOSALS FORWARD FOR CHANGE.

That delegates for Fed.AGM's are give club votes on a sheet of paper signed by two or more club members ,to be handed to the Fed sec.prior to the meeting.

[ovy1255]

we have an excelent sec at our club and for all the hassel and work he does he gets the pricely sum of £5 per loft-but all the members help where they can. i think we have the best club in our fed ,great members.

[alex wight]

when it comes to what appears to be a personal issue, a reason must be given by each and every member that voted against.

 

What i mean by that is.... if a fancier is being refused entry to a club, the members that voted against the fancier must individually explain why.

 

This would split the sheep up and force the followers to explain themselves, which would probably change thier views.

 

Once the explanations have been heard (by an independant panel), then a good honest descision can be made, in my humble opinion.

 

The sport as we all know are at times run by kleeks and if your face doeasnt fit your beat.

Spot on, most fanciers sit on the fence and are frightened to change things, even though it is to the betterment of their sport.
