The champions' celebration of the strong sector east (Limburg) took place in Maaseik, with the champions honored in a full hall.
This concerns races from the sprint and middle distance.
General champion middle distance was Guido and Thomas GERIS from Neeroeteren (this for the 4th time in 5 years);
They became 1st champion among the old pigeons and 2nd champion among the yearlings. They also achieved the 1st and 2nd pigeon of merit among the old pigeons, and the 1st and 3rd pigeon of merit among the yearlings.
We can say this is the more than deserving winner of the middle distance in sector east.
General champion sprint was none other than Peter STAKENBORG, also from Neeroeteren. Peter, who also became 2nd National champion sprint KBDB 2024, is the man to beat in sector east. He has been doing this for many years.
Peter won the championship among old, yearling, and young pigeons... clearly making him more than the deserving winner in the sprint!!
Congratulations Guido, Thomas, and Peter on these impressive titles!!
Also a word of thanks to the donors and buyers of the lots, they ensure that beautiful prizes can continually be awarded. The sale generated about 4000 euros, another nice amount to work with. Everything was beautifully communicated by Mathieu Westhof (one of the driving forces behind sector east) and the lots were professionally auctioned by Eric Moors.
Afterward, there was a lovely tombola with nice prizes in the form of Beyers feed and products.
The sponsors Beyers Voeders and Jos Quix Poorten must also not be forgotten. Thank you for this.
Hereby, the organization wants to thank everyone for their numerous attendance and once again congratulate the champions on their impressive performances.
Until next season.
