WITCHES MOVE FOR JUHL PEDERSEN

IPSWICH have announced the signing of Danish rider Kevin Juhl Pedersen after impressive guest appearances in the ROWE Motor Oil Premiership.

Juhl Pedersen stood in for the Witches last week and played a key role in their narrow win at Northampton, and he now comes into the side full-time as a replacement for Philip Hellstrom-Bangs.

Ipswich chairman Richard Coleman said: “With Kevin showing real promise in our meetings last week, we are pleased to give him an opportunity to show what he can do in the Premiership for the rest of the season.

“He’s really hungry to test himself at this level; he is making good starts, he’s aggressive in the first corner, and he’s clearly not afraid of battling the big names in this league.

“Kevin fitted into the team really well , listening to advice, asking questions and already looks at home with the Witches. We can’t wait to see what the rest of 2026 brings for him.”
