On Sunday, our first midland league match of the season took place (finally)! Our apologies go out to Leicester's youngsters as unfortunately we couldn't get together a team due to riders/parents having other commitments. However our division 2 & 1 did not let the wet weather conditions dampen there performances.
Despite the weather not being on our side the division 2 team did not fail to put on a great performance. After drawing in the first heat we then went on to a streak of four 7-3 wins meaning after 5 heats we already had a 16 point lead over the monarchs. By the last heat we had a 44 point lead thanks to two more 5-5 heats as well as two 6-4 wins and an excellent six other 7-3 wins! Leaving the final score as 53-97 to Wednesfield! Well done lads!
Our Division 2 side included:
Tom Bewick - 16 points
Graham Kemp - 17 points
Alex Aris - 18 points
Harrie Everiss- 15 points
Josh Whetton - 16 points
Tyler Bould - 15 points
The Division 1 side also put on a great performance having a brilliant 36- 53 lead over the monarchs by half time, even after CJ suffered a tape exclusion in heat 3 giving Leicester a 7-2 advantage. Following the interval we brought home the win after getting another two 6-4 wins as well as three 5 all heats and four 7-3 races for us. Meaning we finished 38 points ahead with the end result being 70-108 to Wednesfield. Once again well done everyone!
