Provincial chairman Luc De Backer spoke in his welcome about the unprecedented situation for this Provincial champions day. Due to corona we can only now organize the Provincial champions day, while a large number of fanciers are already training their pigeons, and even the first learning flights are on the agenda, according to the chairman. He thanked his provincial representatives and provincial secretary for their efforts in organizing this champions' celebration, and briefly discussed the shift within the provincial administration due to the resignation of Gert-Jan Van Raemdonck for professional reasons. As a result, the reserves had to be drawn to replace him in the Waasland region, where Luc Bafort was polled, but for medical reasons Luc was unable to respond at the moment. As a result, Freddy Van Overwaele will soon fill the vacant position of provincial mandatary. This will normally be officially ratified at national level on Monday 21 March. The decision on the new national treasurer will also be made there. Furthermore, chairman De Backer was also able to say that the bullet is through the church with regard to the small middle distance on the center line, where in 2022 it will go to Sermaises again. The starting signal for a beautiful champions' party had been given, in which the formula of buffet form - in between the series of tributes - was appreciated by everyone. Furthermore, chairman De Backer was also able to say that the bullet is through the church with regard to the small middle distance on the center line, where in 2022 it will go to Sermaises again. The starting signal for a beautiful champions' party had been given, in which the formula of buffet form - in between the series of tributes - was appreciated by everyone. Furthermore, chairman De Backer was also able to say that the bullet is through the church with regard to the small middle distance on the center line, where in 2022 it will go to Sermaises again. The starting signal for a beautiful champions' party had been given, in which the formula of buffet form - in between the series of tributes - was appreciated by everyone.

Time for the order of the day with the honoring of the provincial champions from 2020 and 2021, who were present with around 290 attendees. The highlight or apotheosis of the afternoon was of course the honoring of the General Provincial Champion from 2020 and 2021. An honor that went to Freddy & Jacques Vandenheede and José Van Laere, both from the merged municipality of Kruisem.
