With Saturday predicted to be high up to 28 dec and having spoken to UNC who have 6 libs 30 minutes apart from Worksop on Saturday and don’t give to no one + Durham Amal which would if we wait for them to clear would put us to at least 10.00 + liberation which under normal conditions would be ok but I am not prepared to have the young birds sit in the heat and liberated in the hottest part of the day so we will go to RETFORD this week which is just below Worksop giving us a good opportunity for early lib.
This should also assist those who have some later young birds, or recovering from YBS or just late work backs. ( sorry for any inconvenience but put young birds first)
old birds now welcome
Young bird racing 2026 REMINDER
Early bred darkness cocks are Cocks hens and don’t know are Hens
We will start with a minimum of 18 birds per crate all sexes the same (all part crates will be topped up)
IF TEMPERTURES EXCEEL 30C THE RACE WILL BE CANCELLED
We will not be flying from Malton on the 8th August this is a super market Car Park not suitable for Liberations especially after 8.00
The likely replacement is Bubwith but I ask all secretaries to get distances for Caythorpe 4255 this is a new site and recommended by all who have used it. (This race point could come into play as HEAT, Young Bird Sickness or the need for a shorter race)
All leagues will run from first Race and will continue on from old birds.
The Young bird Knock out will start week 2
THE CLUB WILL AGAIN BE HOLDING ITS ANNUAL LATE BRED SALE AND GET TOGETHER ALONG WITH A FREE BUFFET AND RAFFLE IN LATE AUGUST I. AM AWAITING DISS TOWN F.C. FIXTURES TO COME OUT TO FIND WHAT WEEK NIGHT IS AVAILABLE. IN THE MEANTIME PROMINENT FANCIERS AND WINNERS WHO HAVE A LATE BRED OR TWO TO SPARE WOULD BE MOST WELCOME ANYONE OUTSIDE THE CLUB WHO MAY REAR A SPARE YOUNG BIRD WILL BE MADE MOST WELCOME.
THE DATES I AM LOOKING AT ARE Tuesday or Wednesday 25th 26th August or 1st or 2nd September
