Under 19s Championship coming to Kent

Kent Speedway have announced that Central Park has been chosen to stage the Great Britain Under 19s Championship.Kent Kings14

This annual event which sees the cream of the nation’s young riders in this age range compete for the national title has been staged since 2004 and this year will be its eleventh-staging.

Previous winners include GB World Cup rider from Maidstone, Danny King (who was the first-champ back in 2004), fellow GB international Lewis Bridger and two-times a winner of this junior title, the current World and senior British Champion, Tai Woffinden.

The winner for the past two seasons, Stefan Nielsen has moved out of this age category now – opening the way for a new name to be added to the roll of honour, as this major championship comes to Kent for the first time.

Co-promoter Len Silver, said: “This very prestigious event, awarded to our fine stadium, is the first of what I hope will be many major events to be staged here.  With the impressive facilities and outstanding viewing, Central Park is a venue worthy of fixtures of the highest calibre.

” We have always said we are ideally set up to stage major championships and it is a great honour that in only our second season operating we’ve been awarded this BSPA organised event with a national championship title up for grabs.  When one sees who’s won this title before, it certainly shows what an important championship the Under 19s is; and we can be sure the meeting will be extremely keenly contested by a field packed with the country’s finest young Speedway racing talent”.

The meeting is to be held at Central Park in Sittingbourne on Monday September 1st with an earlier than usual start time of 6.15pm.

The revised start time is to ensure that all races are completed before the 8.30pm curfew. Trophies for first, second and third placed riders are to be provided by Kent Speedway’s valued sponsorship partner, Buckmore Park Karting.
