Ipswich Speedway are proud to announce the team selections for the Great Britain v Australia U25 Test Match being staged at Foxhall Stadium on the 15th October, start time 7.30pm.
Respective National team bosses Rob Lyon and Craig Boyce have selected their strongest sides available and both are clear on exactly what is at stake when these sides hit the track in three weeks time.
Former international and Australian boss Craig Boyce said “It was devastating to miss out on World Cup Gold like we did, so this young team are looking to serve a little reminder to the poms and the rest of the speedway world, exactly what they have to contend with over the next few years. They have the perfect roll model in current championship leader Jason Crump.”
New Great Britain boss Rob Lyon who came so close to taking his team of youngsters all the way to the World Cup Final this year was measured in his response saying “I can understand where Craig’s coming from and this is just the sort of meeting we both need to bring the best out of our sides. Even though it's still early days for me in the job, make no mistake about it, I have a very capable side who are extremely proud to wear the Union Jack and it is going to be one heck of a battle out there.”
