UK CONTRACTS
Since 2003 Rod has been the official Australian talent scout for the Poole Pirates Elite League team in the UK.
Poole is the 'Glamour' club of UK Speedway and has strong ties with the Isle of Wight Premier League club.
Although this is a good thing, Rod also understands that not everybody can ride for Poole or the Isle of Wight.
Using our world wide contacts we are in a great position to inform UK clubs of your desire to ride in the UK and also to give them an accurate assessment of what you have achieved in Australia and what you are likely to deliver in your debut season.
Ultimately, it is our goal to see as many Australian riders succeed in the UK as possible.
We can also help with advice on international licensing and MA rider clearances.
If we can't help with your querie we should be able to put you in touch with someone who can.
Chris Holder (Isle of Wight), Jason Doyle (Poole) and Tom Hedley (Newport) are just three of the quality riders to have benefited from our network of contacts.
We are currently working on possibilities for riders such as James Holder (NSW), Ty Proctor (VIC) and Kozza Smith (NSW).
At the end of the day it is ability and ability alone that will see a rider either succeed or fail, but it certainly doesn't hurt for Australian riders to be in the consciousness of British Promoters, particularly with injuries happening on an almost daily basis.
A brilliant talent (eg Chris Holder) will more often than not be sourced from here by UK promoters via word of mouth or domestic race results.
However, some riders need a bit of help to gain notoriety and we hope to play a part in that happening.
If you are keen to ride in the UK and have any questions please drop us an e-mail.
If you are keen to go to the UK to watch some racing and have any questions regarding track locations / operating nights etc, let us know and we'll help wherever possible.
