The letter you send to the secretary of the club to join will ask for the members to accept you or not according to how they vote, as I said before my old club never turned down any new applications to join the club.

Feds will be like a club
Just section it off and if you in the fed radius your in

It’s not really worth winning clubs now
Lucky to get 7/8
Feds are going the same way mines getting pointless
48 sending 4 years ago about 27 now even less the end of yb season
I didn,t think the clubs where that low on members Neil, is that the same across the country :o
80 per cent won’t get 10 members send
Never buy pigeons based on club results is my rule
There are exceptions but not many
I agree some flyers the birds fly over there house race day now if you can't do well then you never ,,then there's exceptional flyers that live miles of line of drag and in all winds race unbelievable, when I was with Ted Cook 2 weeks ago he said one season with 8 cocks topped fed 7 times they said you never do that again Ted following Yr with 8 cocks tops fed 11 times this was the Kent valley fed a big fed yrs ago ,,there's good flyers then there's them wizard type flyers.

Hi Mike
i think this rule as been changed it is just a straight vote now cheers jack


Assuming you're in the radius, then you submit an application in writing

At the next meeting you need a "Proposer" and a "Seconder".

Assuming that happens then your application will be voted on at the next meeting. The Sec. is required to inform all members when this meeting is so all parties can vote for/against if they deem necessary

You'd "think" being a new a starter all this is a formality really

That's good to know as I didn't think the could refuse people really, as I say am very very new so hopefully that will go in my favour to get in the club. I didn't thing they had to vote thought you just applied to join. :shock: :shock: :shock:

Thanks Mike, explaining how it works to get into a club.
I have been in touch with the Sec at Halewood who is checking the Radius for me I sent him my Post code so fingers crossed i'm in the area to join.

GREAT NEW !!!!!!!
Halewood Sec has just called me for a chat and some with great news to say I am within the Radius of there club so I am able to join.
I asked him what happens next.
He's invited me around to his house over the weekend for a chat.
So looks like things will be moving forward and I will need to sort the shed / loft out and then birds later this year.
Thanks for all your help and support in pointing out each step for me to take to be able to make contact with a local club.
