The INFC Secretary Trevor Topping has arranged a meeting for the ETS Companies to work out the best way to race mark the birds for national races and clock checking. The final entries have now been received for the 2009 INFC/BHW Single Bird Challenge and have exceeded all expectations with over 350 entries and prize money totalling £1600. The winner will also receive the Joe Doheny Trophy and £450 prize money, 2nd £300, 3rd £200, 4th £150, 5th £100, 6th £75, 7th £75, 8th, 9th and 10th £50 each.

I would like to thank everyone who entered and wish them all the best in the King’s Cup this year. The race programme has something for all the members, and a host of special awards. These include a new 3 Bird Average over the Yearling Nat and YB Penzance, entry £1 per bird and a cup presented by Robin Duddy plus £1,000 to the winner. Details of this and all the race information will be available in the Entry Forms Booklet. The 2009 season is going to be something special, make sure your membership is paid on time.
