NIPA News - The NIPA President Mr P Murray of Killyleagh has sponsored a voucher to the value of £35 for Beatties for the winner of each section in Talbenny Y B national.

This week is the Fermoy 5 bird where you are not permitted your own crates . ALL birds including the normal Fermoy entrants must be spread as evenly as possible over the crates. Please ensure that 2 members from another club are present during the race marking or you may race mark with another club. If so please advise regarding collection. All pigeons timed in the 5 bird MUST be returned to your centre within 3 hrs of clocking.

The transport manager has requested that any crates owned by Southern Ireland clubs please use them this week so that they can be on the transporters to be returned.

Would all clubs when sending in the ordinary Fermoy club result ensure that any 5 bird pigeons are also included on this result. These are 2 separate races and we only need the ordinary result emailed. There is NO club result for the 5 bird . Thanks.

Ulster Federation update this weeks race is from the horse and jockey we our thinking with this weekend weather it's looking like a Saturday race this is just to let you all know what we are thinking, and at the moment it will be a Saturday race. Lee Wilson.
