The rules thus far subject to change.

The Golden Mile season 2027 will consist of three races west of Adelaide Kimba 275 klms Poochera 420 klms and Ceduna 540 kms Dates to be advised.

 We have chosen this line as in the past for the SAHPA we have had the best returns and the least number of predators. using our own transport to give more flexibility.

Cost $400 per bird, one free entry per eight birds entered. In cases where a member does not lose any of their eight birds, they will have the option to pay for the spare to be entered in their team. Where a team loses a bird, the spare will be activated at no charge. Spares will only be activated before the first race. Whether a team has one entry or more they will all go under the same team’s name. eg Gilmour Family 24 birds.

Entries for 2027

The intake will be Saturday the 14th of November until Monday the 14th of December. Mating of your birds should be the first week of September.

No exceptions will be made. Please send birds to airport to be picked up on Saturday mornings where possible. Owners from 2026 will have first option to enter in 2027 then we will open it up to all non-members. At completion of the season 2027 birds will be sent home upon request via text or email, the responsibility is with the owner to book flights where necessary and advise when to take to airport.

Every bird will be vaccinated for PMV on arrival, then Rota a fortnight after, then repeated two weeks apart.

Ventilation in each bay will be added. Extra fly outs will also be added for more room.
