Community and Social Features - Implemented and Coming Soon

Members will be able to comment on published race results congratulate the winner, discuss the weather, share the story of a hard race. Moderated by club secretaries to keep the conversation constructive.

Members can already send direct messages to each other within PigeonLink. No phone numbers shared, no email required private, club-scoped messaging between members. Secretaries can message all club members at once.

Club secretaries and PROs will be able to post announcements directly to their members meeting notices, rule changes, race programme updates, trophy night details. Members see their club's noticeboard on their dashboard.

Every loft will have a public profile page showing season performance, race history, and a photo. Members control what's visible. A way to build a racing identity within the PigeonLink community.

Full management of club and federation race liberation points. No more confusion about where your pigeons are liberated from - PigeonLink will show you on a map complete with location and contact information supplied by racing officials.

Secretaries and racing officials can store distances for any club member from their loft to any race point in the system. Alternatively they can use PigeonLink's mapping tool to calculate those distances based on their governing body distance calculation rules or industry standard mapping formulae.

Attach photos to race records liberation point shots, arrival photos, trophy presentations. Race managers and PROs can publish a photo gallery for each race alongside the official result.

Live season standings for your club points accumulated across all races, updated automatically as each result is confirmed. Filter by race type, section, or pool. A permanent hall of fame for past champions.

Club and Federation secretaries can plan the racing season and publish to members instantly. Federation races cascade down to club dashboards - and clubs can also plan their own race programme for their members. Optional surfacing of race programme on public facing pages at PigeonLink - so you don't need to be a registered member to find out what's going on in the racing world.

Club officials can record pigeon entries prior to the race day. The fliers basketed wrap up into the race entries for the day making it easier for club and federation secretaries to monitor entries and fees etc.

Fliers are always keen to know their performance on race day against other club and fed members. PigeonLink makes this easy with a mobile clocking feature where fliers or officials can enter a provisional result as birds arrive to be verified shortly after the race by the relevant secretaries to produce the offical club and federation results.

Racing officials can also import race results easily for processing into leagues and standings for the clubs and federations involve. Results can be provisional pending secretary or other official approval and then closed as final with official race result sheets available for viewing on screen or for member printing.
