LION CUBS ARE COMPLETE

LEICESTER have completed their line-up for next season’s WSRA National Development League campaign with the signing of former British Youth 125cc Champion Sonny Springer.

The 15-year-old will be making his debut in league racing with the Lion Cubs, having stepped up to 500cc level in the closing stages of 2022 and gained experience this year.

Cubs boss Dave Howard said: “After Sonny’s great efforts in the 500cc British Youth Championship in 2023, 2024 gives Sonny his first year of NDL racing.

“I’m sure he will show us what he can do and progress well during the 2024 season for the Lion Cubs, and it’s a pleasure to have Sonny in the team.”

LEICESTER LION CUBS 2024 (Subject to approval): Joe Thompson, Tom Spencer, Max James, Arran Butcher, Vinnie Foord, Luke Crang, Sonny Springer.
