Dear friends,
We must inform you that, unfortunately, our Final did not go as we expected.
The first 9 pigeons arrived shortly after 2 pm, trapped quite well, but were not clocked due to a technical failure still under analysis. Immediately, part of our team tried to solve the electronic situation and others went to the lofts and isolated the 9 pigeons to check the band numbers and check the lists and basketing stamps.
Three more pigeons arrived, which in the meantime were also isolated and checked.
In the presence of the FCI and FPC supervisor, Mr. José Luís Barros, the band numbers of the first 9 pigeons were noted. We did the same to the other 3 pigeons that had already been clocked correctly by the Benzing system.
At that time, we were already in contact with FCI and Benzing in order to find the best outcome for what happened and, as a result, we decided to classify the first 9 pigeons with the same classification, that is, the 9 pigeons will get the 1st prize.
The total of prizes from the 1st to the 9th will be sum up and distributed in equal parts by the owners of the 9 pigeons.
It is further reported that the order of arrival from the 10th onwards is correct (although this 10th, in the first phase, was registered in Benzing as the 1st pigeon clocked).
More than anyone, we deeply regret what happened and we apologize to everyone and we appeal to your best understanding!
Among all the bad things that happened, we believe that the decision to award the 9 pigeons was the best solution and, therefore, our Congratulations to the 9 winners!
Since this statement is true, it will be signed by the organization and the FCI delegate.
In behalf of Moledo Organization,
Pedro Fernandes
In behalf of FCI,
José Luís Barros

Dear friends,
We have been constantly looking for weather forecasts and, in fact, it has not been easy. Now, relying on precision for three days, we decided to make the final next Wednesday, November the 11th.
We cannot wait any longer, as we are already 7 weeks late and, also for this reason, we decided to go ahead with the big FINAL.
Unfortunately, with the entry of a new state of emergency that tightens the rules, we will not be able to put into practice the good hospitality that characterizes us. For this reason, regretly, we cannot receive anyone on that day and only the people directly involved will be able to attend the basketing operations and the arrival of the pigeons:
- Organization staff;
- FCI inspection;
- FPC inspection;
- Journalists;
- Vet;
-Specialized technicians such as light, sound, image, etc.
The final will be filmed and broadcast in live stream on our Youtube channel and on our social networks.
We will give more information soon and GOOD LUCK to EVERYONE!
