Today, the Redcar Agilia Bears’ promotion received the exciting news that they will be staging the 2022 British Under 19 Final. The prestigious event, which will see a British Champion crowned at the Ecco arena, will take place on Thursday the 21st of July at 7.30pm.
Promoter Jamie Swales told us, “I’m very excited to have been handed the chance to stage such an important event. Jade and I applied for the final after Newcastle’s withdrawal from the league left us with an empty week. As the Ecco arena is such a fair track that always produces great racing it will give the very best of our British youth a great stage to perform on, allowing them to race hard and to showcase their talent. I’m expecting an epic British Under 19 Final and we can’t wait!”
The 16 rider line up is packed full of riders who are capable of taking the title and have plenty of experience of the Ecco Arena. One thing that is certain, is that 2022 will see a new champion crowned, as 2021 winner and three times title holder Drew Kemp is no longer eligible to race in the competition due to his age.
