Berwick Bandits have secured a sponsor for their 50th season spectacular on Saturday, March 18 (tapes-up 7pm).

Grant Henderson Tankers of Hamilton have come on board for this unique event featuring riders from the Olympus Marquees Berwick Bandits (powered by Mike Hope of Wooler) plus guests.

Co-promoter Scott Courtney said: “Grant is a great guy who loves his speedway and we look forward to welcoming him and his family to Shielfield Park.

“We are also excited to be welcoming some very special guests. I’m led to believe there will be several Bandits Legends from seasons past attendance.

“I can’t name names at this stage but I can say that quite a few heroes from the last 49 seasons will be joining us to celebrate all things Berwick Speedway.

“We are pulling out all the stops to make it an event to remember.”
