]]> SCUNTHORPE and Sheffield have pulled off the double signing of Ace and Stene Pijper, with the later turning 15 on April 15th with both lads wanting to join the club, and promoter Rob Godfrey can’t wait to give two of Britain’s hot prospect a chance!

Manager Simon Lambert said “I believe Rob and I have put together is a very formidable team!”

“It has power and strength in all areas. We have 4.61 left to play with and we’re keeping our options open for this spot for now. We want to see talent and keenness at our training schools when the weather allows.”

“We all feel we have a very capable team of bringing even more silverware to both clubs. It’s something exciting to look forward to at both Scunthorpe and Sheffield.”

SCUNTHORPE SCORPIONS will announce their next rider at 9am tomorrow

]]> SCUNTHORPE and Sheffield are to share joint participation in the National Development League – a combination which won the title back in 2011.

The team will operate as the Scunthorpe Stags for fixtures which take place at the Eddie Wright Raceway, and as the Sheffield Prowlers when they race at Owlerton, with home meetings spit between the two venues.

Current Scorpions captain Simon Lambert is keen to be involved on the management side and has been co-ordinating putting the team together.

Scunthorpe promoter Rob Godfrey said: “We’ve always done our bit in developing younger riders, even when we haven’t been in the NDL. 

“We will again be running a British Youth round at Scunthorpe in 2024, as we do every year, while the amateur meetings organised by Richard Hollingsworth have been a key part of our club for a long time.

“The difference between now and the last time we ran a joint team with Sheffield is we’re now in different leagues. 

“There’s an opportunity for riders to compete in both the NDL and Championship for Scunthorpe, and who knows after that, they could be riding for both Scorpions in the Championship and Sheffield Tigers in the Premiership in the Rising Star position.”
