Racing

All races are conducted under the supervision of veterinary trained stewards and in strict compliance with the Code of Practice for Pigeon Keeping and Racing in Western Australia which is approved under the Animal Welfare Act 2002.

Basketing of pigeons is done in a dedicated room under the main roof of the club house so there is no need to go outside.
