Dubai One Loft Pigeon Race

World Championship Pigeon Sprint Racing

Season 2

1.     General

1.1.          The Dubai One Loft Pigeon Race, or the World Championship Pigeon Sprint Racing, is a pigeon race that focuses on pigeon sprint racing and will commence in November 2024.

1.2.          Multiple Races and Hotspots (Races) ranging from 100 to 400 km will be organized every weekend from November, 2024, until the end of February, 2025.

Each race will occur on the dates mentioned around 7.30 AM, subject to suitable weather conditions.

An emphasis will be on identifying the best young pigeon in sprint racing.

1.3.          Should the general condition of the pigeons in the loft, the prevailing weather conditions, or any other exceptional circumstances warrant it, the organizers reserve the right to amend the race or training schedule accordingly.

1.4.          To prevent the transmission of diseases and to guarantee the integrity of the race, access to the lofts will be confined to participants and/or any other visitors and will be tightly regulated. Participants will only be permitted to visit the lofts for valid reasons, with appointments made at least two weeks before the actual visit. Participants are forbidden from handling any pigeon.

1.5.          Upon registering for the competition, all pigeons shall be entrusted to the Dubai Pigeon Race for their management and well-being during the training and racing period. The ownership of all pigeons shall be transferred to the shipping company, transporters, and subsequently to the organizers of the Dubai Pigeon Race upon being accepted into the Dubai Pigeon Race Loft.

The shipping companies or transporters shall evaluate the pigeons and determine which pigeons are suitable for one-loft racing, auction, or return to the breeder. This process shall be executed at the discretion of the transporter or shipping company in coordination with the breeder. The rights to any prize money and net sale proceeds that accrue, as defined below, shall remain with the relevant pigeon’s activator.

1.6.          It is anticipated that some pigeons may be lost or die during quarantine, training, and racing, whether due to sickness, hazardous conditions, or injury. Good, proper, and careful management will be employed to moderate such losses. However, the Dubai Pigeon Race’s administration, organizers, or appointed agents will not be deemed liable for any losses.

1.7.          Any person involved in the race organization or any immediate family members is forbidden from participating in the race for prize money.

1.8.          The pigeon management will determine the training, care, and racing methods.

1.9.          For complete transparency, the pigeons’ arrival will be broadcasted online.

1.10.     Participants will be deemed to have fully understood and agreed to the terms and conditions of entering pigeons into the race. Furthermore, participating in the Dubai Pigeon Race implies that participants accept the race’s regulations and all the decisions of its organizers.

2.     Entry and registration

2.1.    For the 2024 intake year, all pigeons must be ringed with rings issued by a recognized racing pigeon organization for identification purposes. These rings must show the number, year, and particulars of the issuing organization. All pigeons must bear 2024-year rings.

2.2.    It is not permitted to race pigeons before entering them into the Dubai Pigeon Race.

2.3.    All participants must submit completed registration forms before their pigeons arrive at the loft for the Dubai Pigeon Race.

2.4.    If the participant entering a pigeon is not the actual owner but instead a representative thereof, this representative must possess a letter of authorization from the pigeon’s owner.

2.5.    When a syndicate or pigeon club registers pigeons for the competition, one individual must be nominated to communicate and receive any prize money and/or after-race sale proceeds. For a syndicate’s pigeons, the organizers will only act on instructions from the nominated party.

2.6.    The name of an individual, club or syndicate must be finalized once the first pigeon enters the race. This chosen name cannot be changed following submission.

2.7.    The Dubai Pigeon Race has, without further explanation, the right to refuse participation by individuals, clubs or syndicates.

3.     Activation

3.1.    Participants may enter a team with one or more pigeons, with these comprising one (1) active pigeon and up to three (3) reserve pigeons for each team (see entry & payment form). Participants can send fewer, or even no, reserve pigeons as part of a team. Still, only those participants who enter three reserve pigeons will be eligible to receive credit under certain conditions.

3.2.    On the entry form, each participant must stipulate which pigeon to activate, followed by the reserves listed in order of preference. If no such order is specified, pigeons will be entered randomly. Following submission, pigeons may not be switched between teams, nor will changes in the pigeon order be allowed.

3.3.    This pigeon will become activated after payment and confirmed receipt of the US$ 250 (net after bank charges) entry fee for an individual pigeon. Payments must be made to the Dubai Pigeon Race (see entry & payment form), and any payment shortfalls must be corrected.

3.4.    The entry fee for a team is 250 USD and includes the activation of 1 pigeon and the perch fee of 50 USD (care, medication, food, …) for each of the other pigeons of the team. The entry fee for each team should be paid before the team is received by the Race’s designated agents (see designated agents). Proof of payment must be provided to the agent, and a copy must be sent by email. (Note that all payments must be fully settled after bank charges.)

3.5.    If the minimum payment, as outlined herein, has not been received alongside a shipment, the relevant pigeons may be converted into For-Sale Pigeons or excluded from the competition.

4.     Qualification 100km.

4.1.    A qualification race will be organized before the first HotSpot of the season.

4.2.    The organizer will run the clocking system six days from the release day.

4.3.    All pigeons that return within 144 hours from the time of release will qualify for the races and will be subject to paying the activation fee of USD 250. This activation is mandatory for all pigeons that qualify.

4.4.    The activation fee must be paid within 3 days after qualification. If payment is not made within the specified time frame or the amount paid is less than the issued invoices, the organizers will take full ownership of all the pigeons of the fancier or syndicate. In that case, the organizer will have the right to take any action as deemed appropriate, including taking all the pigeons of the fancier or participants out of the race.

4.5.    If pigeons return later than 144 hours after the qualification, the participant may choose whether to pay the activation fee to make the pigeons eligible for subsequent races. If the participant decides not to pay the activation fee, the pigeons will become fully owned by the race organizers, and the organizer will have the right to take any actions as deemed appropriate.

4.6.    In the event of loss or injury of the pigeon after the qualification, the activation fee will not be refunded in any case.

5.     Activating reserve pigeons

5.1.    If all pigeons of a team with a minimum of 4 submitted pigeons get lost before the qualification race, a credit will be awarded, which can be used to activate a pigeon of another team of the same fancier or a For-Sale pigeon.
No credit will be awarded if pigeons get lost after the qualification.

5.2.    Credit can be used to activate For-Sale pigeons, and it may be either spent in the current race season or carried over to the following race season for entries. Credit is not redeemable, nor is it transferrable to other participants.

5.3.    Any credit awarded will expire after the following season and not be carried forward after this. Any credit awarded for lost pigeons in the previous year will be applied to the current year’s pigeons in order of activation. (In other words, a credit will be used first.)

6.     Activating For-Sale pigeons or Donor Pigeons

6.1.    Reserve pigeons in the same team will automatically assume the place of an activated pigeon should they be unavailable or lost before the qualification.

6.2.    Pigeons not timely paid for can (at the organizer’s sole discretion) become a For-Sale that any other third party can activate—on a first come, first served basis—at least 48 hours before any race. Pigeons can not be booked, and payments must be settled within 24 hours of activating that pigeon, upon which all rights to that pigeon will pass to the activator.

6.3.    For-Sale (or Premium For-Sale) pigeons may compete in all competitions once activated and will be eligible to collect points for all races it has raced.

6.4.    A pigeon entered into a team or Fancier’s Squad cannot be transferred to another team or Fancier’s squad. However, a pigeon may be transferred to another participant in the case of unpaid pigeons when a third party purchases one.

7.6.    Local pigeons will be collected and shipped by local agents, with the associated costs being charged to the participant’s account.
