ZISCHKE BACK WITH ACES

BELLE Vue have confirmed the signing of Australian youngster Tate Zischke for a second full season at the National Speedway Stadium.

Zischke, 20, made his Aces debut in mid-2024 but suffered serious injuries on his debut, meaning he had to wait until last season to gain significant experience in the ROWE Motor Oil Premiership.

CEO Mark Lemon said: “We gave Tate the opportunity to perform last year without any pressure, but he did take a step back in confidence after the injury.

“We expect him to kick on now in 2026, and he’s shown promise already in the Australian Championship.

“He’s got the talent, he just has to apply himself and coming in on a 3.00 average we’ve done the hard yards and persevered with him, so it’s time for him to step up.”
