Rooster J. Cogburn Posted February 9, 2014 Report Posted February 9, 2014 I've been thinking about the old sections in the SNFC - North,South,East and West. Which fanciers have the most section wins within the club? I make it 1. Jim Donaldson2. Davie Rose3. John Hodgson Is this correct? A further question - why were the terms 'Section' and 'Region' swapped ?

dark hen Posted February 9, 2014 Report Posted February 9, 2014 Any idea the number of times these super flyers topped their section ? James Donaldson has 24 1st section prizes 21 of them flying over 600mls.

paddymac Posted February 9, 2014 Report Posted February 9, 2014 Jim Donaldson has 24 1st section prizes 21 of them flying over 600mls.That is incredible results from such a distance
Rooster J. Cogburn Posted February 9, 2014 Author Report Posted February 9, 2014 That is incredible results from such a distance Aye it's very impressive stuff I'm missing a few pieces of the jigsaw, but think Davie Rose is in the region of 11-13 North Section wins and that John Hodgson will be around the 9-11 mark in the South any further info would be much appreciated

Guest Gareth Rankin Posted February 10, 2014 Report Posted February 10, 2014 A further question - why were the terms 'Section' and 'Region' swapped ? They swapped them over to supposedly encourage the fanciers in section D and F to send pigeons to SNFC, as it was deemed unfair that section F had a disadvantage competeting against section E and likewise section D competeting against section B. I could be wrong but I believe that the only other difference after they swapped over is that there are now seven section trophies for each of the races.In hindsight all that should have been done was to present region trophies (A,B,C,D,E,F,G) to encourage the disadvantage areas. Through habit I am like a lot of other fanciers and still call it the West, East North and South Section etc
