Tuesday 15//06/21

The race controller will make an announcement tomorrow evening Wednesday around 8pm regarding race marking for a possible release in Bude & Skibbereen on Saturday.

Ref to the Fermoy result which has been published without members and birds competing if any club can email any numbers that they have we would be able to attach these to the result if not we will have no option but to leave this information blank.

Also quite a number of clubs have not paid their 4 week transport payment and also quite a number have not paid any birdage for the ordinary Fermoy last Saturday please issue your cheques immediately and forward same to the office asap. Regards Fred.

The NIPA will Race Mark Friday evening at centres only for their Yearling National Race from Skibbereen, Collections times have been posted previously on this site and are approx 2 hours earlier than your usual centre collection

Any Club that has not paid their 4 week payment must do so before tomorrow night, and forwarded to the NIPA office via the transporter. If you fail to do so an extra 10% will be added to your account.
