Bears travel to Sheffield this Thursday

There is no action at the Media Prima Arena this Thursday, as the SG Petch Bears instead travel to Sheffield to take on the Tigers in Championship action (7:30pm start).

Sheffield, like the Bears, have started the season well and at home especially are a very strong side and it shapes up to be a cracking contest. The Tigers have a couple of names very familiar to Bears fans in ex-number 1 Lasse Bjerre and Bears asset Rob Branford.

The Bears will be without Danish star Jonas B Andersen for this meeting, as he is required to be in Denmark for a Danish Championship qualifier on Friday morning. Rider replacement will operate in his absence. Jason Garrity and Richard Hall both return to their former club and will be looking for big points on their returns! Charles Wright will also be fit after missing Somersets meeting on Monday.

Sheffield – Josh Grajczonek, Todd Kurtz, Lasse Bjerre, Josh Bates, Kyle Howarth, Rob Branford, Jack Parkinson-Blackburn
Redcar – Jason Garrity, Coty Garcia, Charles Wright, Jonas B Andersen R/R, Ben Barker, Richard Hall, Ellis Perks.
