FREEMAN JOINS BULLETS

BERWICK have moved to sign 18-year-old North-East talent Archie Freeman for their NDL team next season.

Freeman joins the Bullets after spending 2022 with Belle Vue, although he is not a completely new face at Shielfield Park as he has appeared for their Academy team and also rode at the club’s training track based at Duns.

Berwick coach Kevin Little said: “Archie is an exciting and talented young man on a speedway bike, and he has invaluable experience at this level despite his tender age.

“We want to see Archie make progress but just as importantly for him to enjoy his racing, and I think that the dynamic we have at Berwick, embodied by our new captain Greg Blair, will prove to be an ideal environment for him.”
