DUN ENOUGH

Dragons to host Euro GP

Dunmow will host a round in the World Championship GP series for the first time in 13 years. Their 20,000 capacity ‘Lair’ arena something of a surprise pick for the European Grand Prix in SL24, it only the sixth biggest in the country, with the likes of Quantock, Merseyside and Altrincham all overlooked this time around. The MLSA will point to the fact that although their stadiums may have bigger capacities than that currently on offer at the Dragons, those three have all hosted rounds in the recent past, while Dunmow have not been allocated one since SL11. The British Grand Prix meanwhile returns to Southampton for a third time, the Scorpions’ Michigan Park—which has a capacity of 51,625—also staged the European GP as recently as SL22. Quantock (3rd round) and Manor (2nd round) have been given later qualifying ties in the World Championship, while other big winners in this weeks allocations include Don Valley (British Final), Merseyside (WU21 semi-final) and Altrincham (Division One Riders Championship). The first piece of club silverware will be awarded at Laceby, who host the Pairs Final early on in the second month of the new season. On the track Don Valley completed the only 100% pre-season by any of the British League clubs, they rounding off the warm-ups with victories over Lye and Hertford. And it’s the Vipers who have been made favourites to take the SL24 league crown, they won the last of their five titles in SL21. Individual success too for the club, with Vipers youngster Taylor Barber winning the BU19 title at Merseyside this week, the top eight from that final go on to represent the UK in the WU19 Championship.
