Info for NIPA Members - 19/04/21

Post by willie reynolds »

Information for members 19th April 2021.


In the event of the General Licence and permits being issued this week which would allow mixing of pigeons in groups for training and racing purposes could members inform their club secretaries if they would be competing this weekend and with the number of pigeons they would be entering. This is to assist with arranging transporters.

Numbers would have to be confirmed by lunch time on Thursday to give time too arrange transport.

Centre / area collections will be put in place if numbers are not sufficient to warrant club collections.

Pigeons will have to be race marked under Covid -19 restrictions as set out by the N.I.Executive office at this time. Each club is responsible for insuring race marking is carried out in compliance with these restrictions.
