Koopman Gerard – Ermerveen 1-2-4-5-8-10 Sens Afdeling 10 against 4,995 birds

02 Jul 2021

We go back for a few weeks to the race  from Sens on 03/06 in Division 10. When looking at these results, the top performance of world champion Gerard Koopman caught our eye. A double victory and 6 pigeons in the Top-10 of almost 5,000 pigeons! A result like Gerard likes to put on paper. But when we contacted Gerard, we did not get an overjoyed winner on the phone. "This double victory is a pleasure and proves that the condition is more than good but at the same time we must unfortunately conclude that this Sens race can be categorised as a "disaster race". Not only with me but with almost every fancier, almost half of the pigeons are missing. And I can assure you, it hurts and it dominates the feeling of victory. Too many good pigeons are still missing. I really sympathise with all fanciers of the Northern-Netherlands and also with the people of the release committee. They don't do this on purpose either."
