NATIONAL LEAGUE PAIRS: POSTPONED
Today’s National League Pairs Championship at King's Lynn, which was to have featured BMR Raiders Ben Morley and Rob Branford, has been postponed, with the call-off decision made mid-morning following extensive rain.
No new date has been arranged at this stage but we will advise further as and when this happens.
While a new date is also still to be announced for the Raiders’ trip to Coventry, they will be in Travel Plus National League action next Sunday when they visit bottom club Buxton targeting their first away victory of the season.

KING’S Lynn have confirmed the twice-postponed National League Pairs will not be re-staged this season.
The meeting was initially scheduled for late-August but that and last weekend’s re-arrangement were both thwarted by the weather.
Lynn co-promoter Dale Allitt said: “It’s not a decision that has been taken lightly, as a lot of work had gone into the staging of this event, we were proud to have it at King’s Lynn, and we apologise to all supporters.
“It should be remembered that this meeting was originally to be run on a prime Saturday evening in the summer, and the weather was unfortunately against us on that day.
“The situation now is that over the next two weekends Eastbourne and Birmingham are contesting the two major Finals, and there are also a number of other league matches scheduled to complete the season.
“The Pairs is not the kind of event which can easily be run in midweek when you bear in mind travel and work commitments for riders and supporters, with clubs from throughout the league involved.”
