The scheduled Premier League match between Redcar Bears and Berwick Bandits has been postponed due to recent heavy rain
Tonight's scheduled Premier League match between Redcar Bears and Berwick Bandits has been postponed.
Yesterday’s heavy rain left the track in an unrideable state and, despite the track staff’s best efforts this morning, it soon became obvious they would not be able to get it ready in time for this evening’s match.
No restaging date has yet to be set, although one possibility is next Thursday when the Ecco Finishing Bears are without a meeting.
That would mean switching the date of the planned race night for world champion Tai Woffinden’s Great Ormond Street Hospital appeal, possibly to next Wednesday, although nothing has yet been agreed. Details will be announced once they have been confirmed.
“Yesterday’s rain absolutely murdered the track,” said Bears promoter Brian Havelock.
“The start and finish line is like a quagmire and turns three and four are really bad too.
“We thought we would have enough time to get things right but it soon became clear we wouldn’t. We brought the tractor out and it was just getting stuck.”
The Bears are next in action on Saturday when they visit Workington Comets.
