When we talk about absolute dominance, relentless selection, and sheer flying power in modern pigeon racing, one name stands out above all others: Willem de Bruijn. From his lofts in Reeuwijk, Willem has built a dynasty that continues to shatter records and dominate the skies week after week.
This success is not about secrets or magical tricks. As Willem always says: “Good pigeons, and the rest is nonsense!” It is all about strict selection through the race basket, an unwavering eye for quality, and a breeding engine that transfers front runner power generation after generation.
The Golden Breeding Engine: Reeuwijk’s 4 Foundation Icons
At the core of this world class colony are four legendary pigeons that have rewritten the history books of our sport:
Murphy’s Law (NL17 1279282)
The undisputed crown jewel of the loft! Murphy’s Law was a sensational racer himself, claiming 1st National Ace Pigeon Yearlings De Allerbeste and 1st National Ace Pigeon Sprint Middle Distance Pipa Ranking. On the breeding loft, he turned into an absolute phenomenon! He passes on his blistering sprint power to virtually all his offspring. He is already grandfather to icons such as Olympic Pure Gold (1st Olympiad Bird Maastricht 2024 and 1st National Ace Young NL World Best Pigeon), Amalia (1st National Ace Young Middle Distance Pipa), and Alexia (1st National Ace Young Fondspiegel).
Uranus (NL16 1525623)
A cock with unbelievable prepotency! Uranus was a superstar youngster himself, claiming 2nd National Ace Young NPO. His impact as a foundation sire is legendary. He sired Secretariat (1st National Ace Young Allround WHZB 2019), and his direct descendants win top prizes from 100 to 600 kilometers every single week.
Secretariat (NL19 1667269)
Proof of how deep the breeding value runs in Reeuwijk! Son of Uranus x Anastasia, Secretariat stormed to the 1st National Ace Pigeon Young Allround WHZB title in 2019. He moved straight to the breeding loft and immediately produced Amalia (1st National Ace Pipa 2022), Alexia (1st National Ace Fondspiegel 2022), and Ariane (7th National Ace Pipa 2022). That is pure genetic gold!
Olympic Niels (B08 6338005)
Obtained directly from Dirk Van Dyck out of the famous Di Caprio x Geschelpt 45. Olympic Niels brought Belgian sprinter speed to Reeuwijk. After representing Belgium at the Nitra Olympiad in 2013, he became a pillar of the colony and sired top tier cracks such as Red Rum (1st National Ace Young Pipa Ranking 2020) and Floris Junior (5 time 1st prize winner).
Worldwide References and Top Performances
