All Victorian entry fees (minus convoying fees for Vic Country birds) shall be awarded as prizemoney for the Victorian section of the Grand National.

The ANRPB will award a special prize for the overall Grand National winner including a feature page and photos on the ANRPB website.

The approximate distances are:

Victorian Country birds will have a separate convoy and liberation from Melbourne birds.

The ANRPB is promoting the Cobar Grand National with the endeavour of creating cooperation and unity amongst racing pigeon trainers Australia wide; as well as promoting the Sport of Racing Pigeons in Australia. To that end the ANRPB is hopeful of gaining media coverage Australia wide for this special event featuring our “Thoroughbreds of the Skies.”
