Fledgling Racer Program |
| About
this Program |
The Fledgling Racer Program is made up of experienced racing
Pigeon Fanciers who volunteer to help beginners in their 2nd
year of flying, with advice by mail, email and phone, on how
to race Pigeons. Many good flyers & breeders across Canada
donate their time (and sometimes even birds) to help improve
a beginner's chances of winning diplomas in their second
year.
Often the Beginners and Mentors can establish lasting
relationships that can span more than the one year a
beginner is in the program. Moreover, many beginners can
polish their skills to the point that they can soon mentor
in the same program that helped them.
One on One help is the Real Opportunity of this program. Ask
the how to questions of feeding, training, breeding, and
medication with someone who wants you to be successful and
who wants you to enjoy the sport. The answers are not
complicated coming from someone who understands the problems
that may occur, especially since that someone has 'been
there and done that' generally before.
