League 2010
BYJL National Round 3 (4th September).
Kesgrave 263 Sheffield 242
Poole 202 Ipswich 188 Wednesfield 172 E.Newport 171
A competition
record 187 entries were in action at Wednesfield for round 3 of the National BYJL and it was certainly hard going for some
of the younger Poole riders on the large Ashmore Park circuit.Hats off to Jasmine for making the long trip as our sole rep
in the U8's while five of the U10's were in action with Callum, Kieran and George all showing up well. Our quartet
of U12's found the going tough while Matt Mildon made it 4 wins in the U16 heats with Aaron and Harry also in fine form
just a point away on 15 apiece. In the U16's, Leyton and Arron both notched 15 and took 1st and 2nd in the A final while
Will Bristowe would have scored more than 9 but for an awkward tumble.
Kristina and Cerys were last out to race and their
points ensured that we held on to 3rd place overall - ahead of Ipswich.
The Suffolk club moved into the
lead in the national league table with just one round of the competition remaining. The withdrawal of several riders
at the 11th hour and non-availability of other regulars means quite simply that unless Poole can muster the strength to better
the East Anglians in round 4, it will be them rather than ourselves who will be crowned 2010 GP Champions....so make a date
all you Clubnighters....September 25th at East Newport!

Hot on the heels of the National round in Suffolk, British cycle speedway's most travelled young riding squad
were in action at Exeter in the 5th round of the regional competition with 24 riders in action.
George Newman won
his first ever A final in the U.10's on his former home track as he along with his other six U.10 clubmates scored an
important 56 point total. The U.14's proved to be the powerhouse group as Matt Mildon and Harry Boucher made it
a Poole 1st and 2nd in the A and along with team-mates amassed 69 points overall. Poole are sitting nicely on top of the Regional
table with one round to go at Poole in early October! A big well done everybody.

Another BYJL round and another
early start for the enthusiastic youth and junior riding squad as summer holidays restricted the final total of competitors
with Jay Briggs and Caris Glover making their competition debuts. With the two East Anglian clubs on the doorstep of the Gt
Blakenham venue, it was always expected that sheer numbers would enable them to clinch the top two positions and the Poole
target was to be top of the "travelling" clubs.
Once again our three high fliers featured strongly in A finals
with Matt Mildon winning the U.14 event and Leyton Glover and Arron Morgan doing the club proud making it a Poole "One-Two"
in the U.16's. As with previous rounds, this was a real team effort with every point scored by every rider helping to
keep us at the top of the national table with two more rounds at Wednesfield and East Newport to go.

Racing started at noon and finished at 10.15pm...a very long day...due to a record number
of competitors. This meant that our fleet of three hire vans did not make it back home to Poole until after 0300 on Sunday
morning so due apologies to families for the late return. (Clearly the competition organisers must re-look at this as it is
totally unacceptable in view of the ages of riders). But at least Poole came out on top so well done riders..... and
senior club members for all the driving and organisational effort. Full details to follow.

27 Poole riders were in action at Swindon in the 4th and final national qualifying round and once again they delivered the
top spot with some spirited racing to elevate the young squad into the national rounds for the first time. What a year it
has been for the enthusiastic and talented bunch of young riders as their never say die attitude has made the big step from
Tuesday clubnights to the big stage. Next stop Astley - Manchester in 3 weeks!

Congratulations for another winning performance from the Poole riders who made their way to South Wales for the
3rd round at Newport. With one more regional round remaining for clubs to qualify for the national rounds, our talented young
riders are now red hot favourites to progress - see table below. The two local Welsh clubs fielded record numbers of riders
and did their utmost to knock Poole off the top of the leader board but as the closing events unfolded, a superb one-two
from Sam Hearn and Jake Williams in the U.18 Final put some daylight into the scoreline after the day had earlier got
under way with our youngest riders - the U8 duo of Chad and Cole putting on their best performance to date. Tough on Matt
Mildon in the U14's....there were very few neutrals present who did not think he deserved to win the A final......having
to contend with more controversy from the usual source. Hats off for a successful debut from the Smith brothers
Aaron (U14) and Callum (U10) who both made a final at the first attempt. George Newman did well to make the A final in the
U10's in a big field while Leyton Glover's fortunes took a welcome turn for the better as he lead them home
in the top U.16 race which also featured competition leader, Arron Morgan. Most of all this was a 27 rider effort....remember
every single point counts so well done one and all!

BYJL Round 2: (8th May)
Poole 297 E.Newport 251 Horspath
189 Newport 177 Exeter 156 Southampton 76 Swindon 36 Hellingly 17
Congratulations to the 32 competitors
from Poole whose joint efforts ensured our second victory in the BYJL Grand Prix series at Southampton on May 8th. Confirmation
of the final points tally from the competition organisers shows the club scored a brilliant total of 297 points, 46 ahead
of nearest rivals East Newport and over a hundred ahead of 3rd placed Horspath.
The youngest age group
opened the procedings as the U.8 squad of Chad Wirtzfeld, Cole Corfield and Lewis Storey took to the track. For Cole and Lewis
it was their competition debut and they finished 3rd and 4th in the C final while Chad followed up his promising start at
Horspath by making it through to the B final where he finished in runner up position.
|
| Under 8's - Lewis, Chad and Cole |
|
| U.10 team ready for action! |
No less than ten Seaview shirts were on parade
for the U.10 event with Jay Dixon, Fraser Garnett, Elenor Hann, Harry Hiscocks, Kieren Hoare, Matthew Joliffe, George Newman,
Hayden Rowles, Ryan Storey and Alex Strutt all in action. Kieren was comfortable winner of the D final with Fraser in 4th.
Harry Hiscocks made it to the C final where he was 4th while Alex made it to the B Final but took a tumble and ended
up 4th behind clubmate George Newman who used all his experience to win the race.
|
| Under 12 team looking relaxed! |
Poole fielded six
of the best in the U12 group with Josh Alden, Frazer Hoare, Niall Instone, Callum Joyce, Holly Morgan and Sam Merrifield in
action with Sam and Canterbury based Callum tasting BYJL action for the first time. Reaching a final in this very big
group was really tough so hats off to Fraser for his D final 2nd place and to an impressive debut from Callum with a
creditable C Final 3rd making the long journey from Kent well worthwhile!
|
| Matt Mildon on the way to his A final success |
In the U.14 competition the pace was hotting up but Matt Mildon was best of the bunch as he powered his way to a highly impressive
A final victory against formidable opposition. Alex Lane did well to finish 2nd in the D final while there was a great debut
from Pass Chatin, Oscar Schmidt and Zac Blackburn who are the most recent recruits to the growing BYJL squad. Oscar was comfortably
in the lead in the D final when he lost his chain at a crucial stage of the race but he did enough to suggest he can
move up the rankings. The same applies to Pass Chatin who did very well to go one grade better notching 4th in the C
final.
|
| New boys Zac, Pass and Oscar join U14s Matt and Alex |
|
| Arron Morgan takes the top prize in the U.16's final |
A strong quintet of Wil Bristowe Leyton
Glover Dean Hook Arron Morgan and Marcus Warwick set about their task enthusiastically in the U.16 category.
Marcus showed signs of his continuing improvement with his second place in the D final while Dean was comfortable winner of
the C final after picking up an unfortunate but justified exclusion in his 4th ride. Arron and Leyton cruised through to the
A final as anticipated but the chances of a one-two success were dashed when Leyton was adjudged to have moved at the tapes.
Fortunately Arron was not affected by the controversy surrounding that decision and lead from start to finish in the
re-run to clinch his second A final of the 2010 series.
After 7 hours of almost continuous racing,
the action was still thick and fast with Kristina Mines providing further evidence of her continuing improvement in the girls
event by making it to the A final and finishing a creditable 4th. More success for Poole in the U.18's as Sam Hearn and
Matt Elston propelled themselves into the A final where they rounded off an exceptional days' racing with first and third
respectively.

Southampton 64 Swindon 32
Hats off to the 24 Poole riders who battled it out
at Oxford in the first round of the 2010 BYJL competition - the highest number of riders the club has ever entered for a single
day of the event. The outcome was our best ever placing of runners-up behind the host club Horspath and ahead of the large
and strongly fancied contingent from East Newport.....a result which subsequently got even better after the event when the
host club had a points deduction for use of an over age rider which means that Poole have been promoted to round winners!!
Highlights of the day were provided by our A finalists with Arron Morgan winning the U.16 event and Matt Mildon finishing
second behind British Champion Louis Harvey in the U.14's with Harry Boucher also in the race. Matt Elston was 3rd
in the U.18 A final but the real winners were all 24 riders - many of them competing at this level for the first time!
Next stop Southampton on Saturday May 8th for round 2.
