THE HOME OF LONG DISTANCE PIGEON RACING
On Saturday 7th October the BBC held their end of season meeting to finalise this years racing and put together a race programme for 2024. The consensus of the majority of members and fanciers is that we need to be collaborating with other organisations to save on costs. The 2024 race programme the Committee have put together has done just that to offer our members as much as we can and as cost effectively as we can. Whether you race short, middle or long distance there is something for you. For Nort Sur Erdre, Pau International, Bordeaux and Fougeres YB/OB we will be collaborating with the CSCFC and BICC. Messac and Guernsey YB/OB we will be joining up with the CSCFC. Any other organisations who would like to join us across the Channel you are more than welcome.
