rules

Primary bird must be designated upon arrival at the loft or before.

Back-up bird will automatically become the primary bird if the primary bird is lost.  Anyone still having both birds may activate the back-up for $100 at any time up to shipping night.  Any back-up bird not activated will not be shipped to the final race.  All fees, once paid, are non-refundable, unless no birds clock in race time.

Should sufficient birds fail to return in race time to close out the prizes, the unclaimed prize money will be paid-out proportionally to the birds that clocked in race time.  Should no birds clock in race time, 100% of the entry fees (excluding perch fees) will be refunded.

The Unikon clocking system will be used.  All positions will be paid based on clocking order (no drops).  In the event of a dead heat (tie) the prizes for the tied positions will be added together and divided by the number of tied birds.

Birds will only be received from 01 APR 2017 until 16 APR 2017.  No exceptions.  Contact Rick Fyfe to arrange delivery to the loft of airport pick-up.

Birds will be returned to the Breeder after the race at the Breeder’s request and at the Breeder’s expense.  Unclaimed birds will become the property of the Niagara Peninsula One Loft Race and auctioned, with 100% of the proceeds going to a designated charity.

All birds must be banded with a 2017 seamless life band approved for racing by the Canadian Racing Pigeon Union.

This is designated as a two-day race.  The race will close once all the prizes have been won, or one half hour after sunset on day two, which ever comes first.

All CU rules apply

Disputes not covered by these rules will be decided by Rick Fyfe with advice from the Race Advisory Committee.
