After not actively practicing the pigeon sport for almost 15 years, Maarten started racing pigeons again in 2020. Basic material for the start-up was mainly obtained from Dirk Martens (Meigem) & Hendrik Mortier (Bruges). In addition to these two basic breeds, also a few pigeons with origin: Batenburg, PEC, AP Overwater, Pierre Bourgeois.Target: LD and mainly ELD with in particular international flights.
Maarten is married to Katrien and father of three children: Rens, Flo & Cas! Despite their young age, the two oldest children already show a lot of interest in the pigeon sport!
