Fixtures for Oxford Cheetahs’ third campaign since the club returned to racing have been released – with a double-header against Poole Pirates starting the year!
The Cheetahs will once again compete in the Cab Direct Championship – British Speedway’s second tier – and line-up in the second renewal of the BSN Series plus the Championship KO Cup.
Four BSN Series Southern Group fixtures start Cheetahs’ 2024 campaign with home ties against defending champions Poole and Plymouth Gladiators scheduled for April 3 and April 17 respectively.
Winners from three regional groups plus the best-placed runner-up will advance to two two-legged semi-finals, the winners of which will qualify for the grand final.
Focus switches to the KO Cup in late April and early May with Peter Schroeck’s men racing Glasgow in a two-legged Quarter Final tie with Cheetahs’ home leg programmed for May 1.
Cab Direct Championship action then begins on May 10 away to Scunthorpe with Redcar Bears’ visit on May 15 the first of eight regular season home fixtures.
The top four teams to accumulate the most points will then advance to the end-of-season play-offs.
