Our club has been in existence since 1985 when a group of the most experienced long-distance minded pigeon fanciers drew up the blueprint for a club that was to provide a focused programme for preparation for pigeons destined to compete at the Highest National and International level.
Our race programme is intended to provide short and middle distance old bird channel racing. The race points are selected to provide best line of flight and professional weather forecast information is provided to assist our race controller. The race points are selected to provide a platform for experienced pigeons to go on to International competition and to provide training for inexperienced pigeons.

Club Membership and Radius
Membership of our club is open to fanciers residing in the eastern counties of Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex and Kent.
Our transporter has the capacity to carry seventy crates and our standard policy is 14 birds per crate, giving our race birds significantly more space per bird than the RPRA guidelines.
2024 Subscriptions are £65.00. We have a membership limit in line with our transporter capacity and we operate a waiting list when that limit has been reached.
