Liberation in Plaudren (France) has been confirmed as 7.30am on Saturday 3rd July in a Lt North wind to be SW around Penzance and strengthen on the route home. Birds were released in sunshine and blue skies. 741 members sent 2,512 birds competing for £35,775 in pools and prizes. The INFC Blue Riband Kings Cup race was delayed on Friday due to a band of very heavy rain in France. A bird reported into Bray in Co Wicklow at 16.49pm set the pace and this one proved to be a winner for Reilly & Martin on 1263, runner-up Ron Williamson of Bondhill was doing velocity 1238. Around 120 arrivals were confirmed on the day and over 400 by Sunday afternoon, a very good success. Lofts in the Top 10 should contact Homer with details, and others winning Trophies or Diplomas etc. This will all help for the official race report, we do need all the help we can get.

Many thanks to all who send birds last week, it was something new as far as I was concerned. This week training is Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Birds can be left with Danny Dixon (Dunloy) for collection at 8.30am then Ballymoney HPS Clubrooms at 9.00am, calling on way back at Rasharkin (Main St), Cullybackey HPS, Galgorm/Gracehill (Royal Court) and Ahoghill Flying Club approx 10.00am. Further calls will be made in Randalstown and Antrim by arrangement. Tel: 07538 238364.
We update weekly on www.pigeonnetwork.com
* For the young bird racing it would be very helpful if all clubs could list their results on their own club site at www.pigeonnetwork.com
We have arrangements to lift all results placed here to be used in the general publicity, time is a massive factor at present and it’s getting almost impossible to deal with all calls, e-mails, fax, mobile phone etc, etc. Another problem is catching late results, they really do need to be placed by Sunday night at the latest, all the news coverage and results has to be ready by first thing Monday. Most clubs are already up and running, we can help the remainder to get started, and this is the easy way to have the result listed and be available for general publicity.
* Williamson & Calvin Transporter will be training each Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday for young bird season, starting 6th July. Birds can be hampered the night before or up to 7.50am on morning of toss at 23 Farra Road, phone Ron Williamson Mobile: 07841 762399. Collection Points as before: Annaghmore Clubrooms 8.05am, Ballyoran Hill 8.20am, Edgarstown 8.40am, Laurelvale HPS Clubrooms 9.00am, Markethill Corner 9.30am, Newry Playing Fields 9.50am. Special Training Toss on Sunday 10th July from Kildare, 20p per bird and everyone welcome.
Last weekend saw the completion of the NIPA Old Bird programme with the national being staged from St Malo in France, a distance of 500 plus miles to competing members. A total of 26 fanciers had entered 92 birds in this event and yet again a very difficult race ensued with the birds having to deal with high temperatures and little help by way of favourable winds. No day birds were recorded and the first bird timed was to veteran fancier Noel McGrotty who fly’s in partnership with his son Sean as members of the Foyle RPS. Noel timed a yearling cock bird to take the top spot in the Derry Fed, a great performance from a fancier who is now the elder statesman in the local sport. In runner up spot are Rock fanciers Cathal Fox and Hugh Hegarty who will see this result as a great finish to the hard work and preparation put in by this partnership during the season. 3rd position goes to another father and son partnership , Colm McConomy and Colm Junior who will take great pleasure in timing in what was an extremely difficult race.

Two birds on the day for Richard Corley and the ever consistent Speirs & Campbell. Former winner Anthony McDonnell was early on the second day to be best in Coleraine and the Mid Antrim record breaker Danny Dixon was best in Ballymoney. The Kings Cup race from Plaudren had been delayed for one day due to weather problems in France, the convoy was released at 7.30am on Saturday. Anthony McDonnell timed at 7.30am Sunday recording velocity 845 for the 533 miles. His winning of the Kings Cup with Bann King remains a record to this day, flying 634 miles out of Les Sables, Anthony is one of the gentlemen of the sport.

Many thanks to all who send birds last week, it was something new as far as I was concerned. This week training is Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Birds can be left with Danny Dixon (Dunloy) for collection at 8.30am then Ballymoney HPS Clubrooms at 9.00am, calling on way back at Rasharkin (Main St), Cullybackey HPS, Galgorm/Gracehill (Royal Court) and Ahoghill Flying Club approx 10.00am. Further calls will be made in Randalstown and Antrim by arrangement. Tel: 07538 238364.
We update weekly on www.pigeonnetwork.com
* For the young bird racing it would be very helpful if all clubs could list their results on their own club site at www.pigeonnetwork.com
We have arrangements to lift all results placed here to be used in the general publicity, time is a massive factor at present and it’s getting almost impossible to deal with all calls, e-mails, fax, mobile phone etc, etc. Another problem is catching late results, they really do need to be placed by Sunday night at the latest, all the news coverage and results has to be ready by first thing Monday. Most clubs are already up and running, we can help the remainder to get started, and this is the easy way to have the result listed and be available for general publicity.
* Williamson & Calvin Transporter will be training each Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday for young bird season, starting 6th July. Birds can be hampered the night before or up to 7.50am on morning of toss at 23 Farra Road, phone Ron Williamson Mobile: 07841 762399. Collection Points as before: Annaghmore Clubrooms 8.05am, Ballyoran Hill 8.20am, Edgarstown 8.40am, Laurelvale HPS Clubrooms 9.00am, Markethill Corner 9.30am, Newry Playing Fields 9.50am. Special Training Toss on Sunday 10th July from Kildare, 20p per bird and everyone welcome.
Last weekend saw the completion of the NIPA Old Bird programme with the national being staged from St Malo in France, a distance of 500 plus miles to competing members. A total of 26 fanciers had entered 92 birds in this event and yet again a very difficult race ensued with the birds having to deal with high temperatures and little help by way of favourable winds. No day birds were recorded and the first bird timed was to veteran fancier Noel McGrotty who fly’s in partnership with his son Sean as members of the Foyle RPS. Noel timed a yearling cock bird to take the top spot in the Derry Fed, a great performance from a fancier who is now the elder statesman in the local sport. In runner up spot are Rock fanciers Cathal Fox and Hugh Hegarty who will see this result as a great finish to the hard work and preparation put in by this partnership during the season. 3rd position goes to another father and son partnership , Colm McConomy and Colm Junior who will take great pleasure in timing in what was an extremely difficult race.
