REPORT: S&SW – Poole vs. Newport

The Poole based club brought to an end their highly successful 2022 season with an entertaining South & South West League fixture with the Newport Club.

The Baiter Park squad were down on strength due to two heat leaders being unavailable due to injuries it therefore became the ideal situation for club team manager Colin Sutton to select riders from the junior squad with 2023 in mind.  Although the visitors had the World Individual Champion Ben Mould and 2022 British Individual Runner Up Mark Carmichael in their squad Poole were able to restrict the scoreline with a brilliant performance that in turn will further their enthusiasm for the 2023 season of competitions. Club Captain Wil Bristowe lead the way on the score chart and in turn gave total encouragement to the rest of the team.  During the winter off-season months club competitors will be considering the vast cost involved in travel to Adelaide in South Australia for the 2023 World Championships and are hopeful of local based support for the undoubted opportunity.Poole 81.Wil Bristowe 16, Feroze Langoo 15,  Kenzie Bennett 13, Josh Nottle 11, Jay Briggs 10, Alan Nation 6, Lexi Curtis 6, Scotty Rowles.Newport 96.Ben Mould 20, Mark Carmichael 18, Callum Goward 14, Adam Bennett 13, Chris Davies 11, Lee Galley 9, Dan Bock 7, Sean Bennett 4.
