KING IS A ROYAL

KENT have signed Connor King following his recent release from NDL rivals Plymouth.

King, who began his career racing a 250cc machine at the Iwade circuit, joins the Royals ahead of their trip to Armadale on Friday.

He takes the place of long-term injury victim Joe Alcock, and was introduced to the crowd at their last home meeting on Sunday.

Promoter Si Kellow said: “We are very pleased to welcome Connor, we’ll nurture him and support him and look forward to seeing him progress.”
