I just want to say that I think the Wednesfeld Aces have played a really super role in the run up to the Wednesfield in Bloom bid. The opening of your Memorial Garden was special!
It looks great, it fitted the project that the community were involved in here on Ashmore Park. The fact that the Club spotted the synergie was masterful. I was as was my fellow Councillors very proud to be invited to your opening ceremony.
We were also extremely pleased to see The Club supporting #TheStuff4Steph Fun Day Saturday 6th July. Again the Club playing a part within the community. Tonight I hope that the new contacts you made at that event enjoy their time with you at the training. Wednesfield Aces is a great sporting club and I Mary and Rita wish you well going forward!

Thanks to the new three year sponsorship given to the club thanks to Linak. This meant brand new race tops! Here are the official photos of our new team tops taken by Mr Burtie Burt:

Weekly Round Up
Last Saturday at Wednesfield we held the Midlands Grand Prix sponsored by Dash Trophies and hosted by Mr Dash Trophies himself, Mr Steve Mullinder.
The starting line ups for both the Junior and Senior events held a wealth of talent so a good days racing was expected. Up first were the juniors with the likes of the Brinkoff brothers, Tyler and Lewis, Fraser Garnett, Coventry’s Cameron Gill & Tom, Horspath’s Will Jeffery plus Wednesfield’s own Tyler Bould and Owen Wells within the field the results were going to be tight. After some very tough, competitive, physical racing the winner of the 2019 series Grand Prix all came down to a run off between Ipswich’s Lewis Brinkoff and Poole’s Fraser Garnett. After 4 hard going laps Fraser took the win meaning Lewis finished in second followed by Horspath’s Will Jeffery taking the third spot.
Next up were the seniors which was also predicted to be a well fought out affair with last years winner Josh Brooke making an appearance alongside Britain’s number two and three Ben Mould and Paul Heard fulfilled the line-up along with ever improving senior riders such as A&T’s Reece Pollit and Aces Tom Bewick; who did not shy away from the challenge. Some great racing was witnessed with numerous tape exclusions, crashes, many spectacular passes and in some respects some acrobatics this again resulted in Josh Brooke to take away the “newly cleaned!” Midlands Grand Prix trophy. Followed by Lukas Nowacki taking the second place with 17 points but it was the third spot which resulted in a three-way run off between Zac Payne, Paul Heard and Ben Mould with Zac coming out on top to complete the podium positions.
 
The following day began the Midlands League races for the Aces as they took on rivals Birmingham. Division 3 saw new manager Georgia lead the foxes through the match to only loose by one point in one of the final heats after leading the whole match. Next up was Division one which was seen to be one of the biggest challenges for the aces for this season. After some very eventful, competitive racing the aces took the win 4 points clear of the monarchs. To finish a weekend full of racing on the Ashmore race way Aces division two side battled against the monarchs to finish 73(-7) to Birmingham’s 76 points well done all!
This weekend we will see Wednesfield vs Coventry in a Midland League match on Sunday 17th starting with Division 3 at 1pm. Can all riders please be there for 12 to help set up!
​

Last night we held our annual presentation night over at Corpus Christi. With many friendly faces there a very enjoyable night went ahead with lots of laughs and awards given out on the night including those for the Club Championships from the end of the 2018 season.

The year of 2018 for Wednesfield Aces…
After a very slow start to this year due to the bad weather many matches were cancelled but by April, we were on the way to a great new season for both our team and individual riders who all rode excellently through out this year. After all the bad weather the season finally began with the spring cup, an individual riders’ event which was held at Leicester by Ross Mee, with Under 12’s through to the women’s and vets’ aces riders did not let themselves down (all full results can be found on Facebook).

After lots of competitive racing even after pulling 4 7-3s they just missed out on the A final by one point.

The final day of the championships which were held at Hull, first up was the Under 16 Boys’ final where once more Tyler rode picking up 12 points after a fall. Next up was Georgia now riding in the Women’s event getting herself 11 points also after a bit of a fall.

Between all the other racing the Midlands League racing was held between clubs bringing some great team riding for all. As a result, our Division one side came out on top with division 2&3 still to be confirmed. Throughout the season there was some brilliant racing by all. Leading on to the end of the years knock out cup to which Wednesfield team once again made it through the regional play offs to ride nationally against new winners Poole and other clubs including Great Blakenham and A&T to which the aces team of Paul, CJ, Matt, Brandon, Lee, Tom, Harrie, Scott and Tyler finished second.  
New to this year’s fixtures gold cup matches were set up to which allowed 12-16 riders in with the action of the senior riders. After some more great racing our senior and junior riders can come away with smiles on their faces. Again, true results have yet to be confirmed. Another fixture which was added this year was the Midweek league with the Junior side only taking part in the home host one as they struggled to get all tea members to each fixture the senior side took part in some of them pulling up some good points.
Other racing this year also included the Battle of Britain series where many of our riders took their places in the Midlands team. The Vets racing saw Wayne, Burtie, Graham, Phil and Andy to get a piece of some racing action over their Eurovets rounds where they all rode very well. Also running this year was the Women’s league where Aces Megan and Georgia were back on the scene representing the Midlands in their women’s team racing but also through the three individual rounds but also in the last round with Georgia alongside chosen team partner Alice finishing second to Gemma and Miah by one point to end the women’s league season.
 The 2018 season was very long, and jam packed with racing as you can see so enjoy your rest for now and we look forward to seeing you in the new year for our presentation evening to give out all this seasons awards including those from annual club championships. See you all soon!

Well what a very busy weekend it has been for the Aces. On Saturday we held a very successful open day where we saw members of the community who had never tried cycle speedway before giving it a go. Some of which we hope to see in the coming training nights. A tombola, BBQ, refreshments, guess the sweets in the jar, football card, cake and samosa sales all raised nearly £200 for the club so well done and thanks everyone who helped.


Sunday more action was seen on our track as we held the fifth round of the Supertrax Battle of Britain where Midlands vs the North and Scotland went head to head to score their regions vital points. Juniors finished 83-97 to the North. Seniors finishing 121-78 to the Midlands there was great racing by all. Aces Tyler played a big part in scoring points for the Midlands junior team as well as joining older aces members Paul Heard, Chris Jewkes and Lee Kemp in the Senior Midlands team.
​

However, that’s not the only race action that took place yesterday as down in Norwich the 3rd round of the Women’s League took place. Although the Midlands where missing a few riders they didn’t let it get to them as all girls rode their best scoring points for the Midlands region. Aces Megan and Georgia both helping to pick up extra points in the team races. Next was the individual races where both the aces girls scored so very good points with Megan scoring 10 which placed her in the C final due to countback but still rode very well in her five-rider final and secured her the 3rd place. After scoring a great 13 points Georgia made it to her first A final of the Women’s League season and after picking the usual gate four and an unlucky slip which lost her the third place respectively finished fourth in the A. Well done everyone what a great weekend it has been now bring on next week for all our riders who are riding in the British finals to hopefully earn themselves the title as British Champion for the 2018 season we wish you all the best of luck.
