MDL FIXTURES 2024

The MDL 2024 will be contested by three clubs .. Birmingham DUCTAIR Bulls, Birmingham SUPPORTERS CLUB Buffaloes and the Leicester Cubs.

Last year the two Birmingham sides dominated the MDL finishing joint top, but a planned play-off was lost to the weather and the two sides are having a decider early season at Perry Barr to claim bragging rights for the new campaign!

Birmingham will run MDL strength second halves all season with individuals and challenges for their expanding squads with several newcomers joining the ranks at Perry Barr with recruits from the local grass track scene where the club have a tie-up with the Formula Grass Association.

Additionally the club have a new recruit from motocross joining their ranks having been tempted to give speedway a try.

The teams will meet home and away twice. Under a change to the rules clubs can use a National League rider up to a 5 point average but will give chances to young riders aiming to put themselves in the shop window for the NDL.

League co-ordinator Laurence Rogers is looking forward to giving as many young riders important track time as possible.

He said: “It would have been good to have had a few more clubs joining our ranks but some have decided to just do their own thing.

“The league is a stepping stone for young riders and the more track time they get the better and thank you to Leicester for coming on board to ensure this league survived.

“There are lots of young riders out there and at Birmingham we do what we can to develop them and give them the opportunity to ride in a team.

“We will be running two teams again with separate squads and continue the friendly rivalry we have between the Bulls and the Buffaloes and look forward to the clashes with the Leicester Cubs.”
