What is PIPA?
PIPA was founded in 2000 as a hobby-project where information was collected about everything related to the pigeon sport. Later on PIPA became a term in the world wide pigeon sport. It is the abbreviation of Pigeon Paradise, the original name of the site. Because PIPA is easier to use and pronounce, everybody uses PIPA when they talk about Pigeon Paradise. Nowadays PIPA is a professional company, under the name PIPA Holding.
