Drug Testing & Diseases
The committee would like to draw everyone's attention (Thames N&EC FC as well as Breeder Buyer and Gold Ring participants) to RPRA rule 199 and Appendix G in the RPRA 2022 Rules relating to drugs which I have attached.
Please can everyone also be vigilant for fat eye (highly contagious), sickness and other diseases. Marking station markers can turn pigeons away if a disease is suspected.
Race Programme
Race programme can be found above. Updated 01/05/26.
- We have been advised that Yeovil is unavailable for race 10 due to a music festival so we have had to change to Weymouth.
- There will also be just 1 race now on 8 August from Yeovil. Stoneycross has been cancelled due to logistics. Therefore race 22 Yeovil will now feature in the averages.
2 Races have had to move to Sunday races, these are race 2 and race 26. The marking for these two races will be Saturday and the pick up times will start at 5pm for Colchester. - Birdage is 75p per bird + 50p per member.
- Guernsey Birdage & further information TBC
- New for 2026 - overall member average
