Broeckx-Van Hees, Oud-Turnhout, set an amazing result on Sermaises (middle distance)

The sympathetic pigeon couple Leo and Maria Broeckx - Van Hees have been at the top since years now. From the short distance races until the long distance races they were to be found at the top of the results list but since a few years now they focus again on what's their strongest category namely the middle distance races. And that it wasn't a wrong choice seems out of the result they set the past weekend: 

Saturday 15/05/2021 Sermaises (393km)

Middle Distance club Oud-Turnhout : 1 - 3 - 5 - 7 - 9 - 13 - 17 - 24 - 27 - 46 - 47 - 49 - 57 - 69 - 72 - 78 - ....(51/92) against 1,088 old
Middle Distance club Oud-Turnhout : 1 - 2 - 4 - 5 - 6  - 27 - 43 - 44 - 47 - 61 - 62 - ....(26/53) against 643 yearlings
==> they had to give up the 3rd place to their son and daughter-in -law Jan & Marleen Broeckx (Niels Broeckx), just to say that even amongst family no gifts are given .

That the pigeons in the Kuiltjesstraat in Oud-Turnhout are busy doing a great job is clear, we're very curious what this team will show the coming weeks. 

We like to wish them first of all a big congratulation with the set result and wish them a lot of success the coming weeks.
