Breed the bird that beats the wind.
WingDerby is a pigeon racing management game that plays out over real weeks. Build your loft, pair proven bloodlines, choose which birds to basket for each release — and read the result when they come home.
Several races a week, one loft per player, nothing to buy that makes a pigeon faster.

A week in the loft
Real racing has a rhythm, and so does WingDerby. Short training flights midweek keep your team sharp; the weekend is where prizes and reputation are won. Every day the loft eats, recovers and ages — a few minutes of care a day is what separates a good season from a lost one.
- MondayTraining flight, 40–90 km. Cheap, builds form.
- TuesdayFeed, rest, check the market.
- WednesdaySecond training flight. Bring the youngsters.
- ThursdayPair breeders, place bids, plan the weekend.
- FridayBasketing closes at 19:00 for Saturday.
- SaturdaySpeed race, 100–250 km. First birds home in under two hours.
- SundayMiddle distance every week. Long distance every second week. Barcelona three times a season.
Three things decide a season
The bloodline
Every pigeon carries two alleles for speed, endurance, orientation, recovery and vitality. You never see the genes — only what the bird shows on the road. Pedigrees are public, so BE-26-4471902 out of a Barcelona winner means something on the market.
The wind
Each release comes with its own weather. A north wind turns a 300 km race from France into a grind; a south-westerly tailwind brings them home at 1,600 metres a minute. You choose which birds can take it.
The verbond
Everyone flies the same national races, but you are ranked against your own verbond first. A beginner can win a prize in Zottegem on the day a champion wins Belgium.
Free to play, fair by design
One loft per player, free forever. A supporter package will later add deeper statistics, pedigree analysis and cosmetic extras for the loft. Nothing you can buy makes a pigeon faster, and there is no shortcut past the breeding table.
Built on the real sport
Release points from Quiévrain to Barcelona, arrival times clocked to the second, velocities in metres per minute, verbonden and provinces the way Belgian and Dutch fanciers know them — and open to players everywhere.
