I.N.F.C. RACES – Not Flown 2020

Although it is very unlikely a presentation will be held for the Mid Antrim Combine awards won in the never to be forgotten 2020 season we will still distribute the cups and trophies won and engraved up to date and on top of that a winning Diploma for the race winners, only the one per loft regardless of the number of wins. I would like to once again thank the MAC President Danny Dixon for looking after the engraving and the production of the various Diplomas, greatly appreciated and keeps the joining fees down to £3 per club which includes all club members that wish to compete.
