HOWARTH PLANS FOR TESTIMONIAL

SHEFFIELD skipper Kyle Howarth has confirmed the line-ups for his Testimonial which takes place at Owlerton next Wednesday (June 12).

A Tigers side will take on a Rest of the World Select over a traditional 15 heat format.

Regular Sheffield riders Josh Pickering, Jason Edwards and Dan Gilkes will line-up alongside Howarth.

Meanwhile, Chris Harris and Jye Etheridge, who both guested for the Tigers in their Grand Final triumph over Ipswich last October, will race for the hosts alongside Rory Schlein who appeared for the club in the third tier earlier in his career.

The Rest of the World side features former German National Champion Norick Blodorn as well as Leicester’s Ryan Douglas and Sam Masters.
