Continuing our support of the development of young riders, with the restaging of the Caledonian Riders' Championship on 25th August, we have now concluded arrangements to bring Buxton Hitmen to Armadale on 28th July for an Intermediate Challenge.

The Hitmen will include the powerful pairing of Matt Williamson and Max Clegg in their side and the Monarchs will include Mitchell Davey and Josh Pickering in their team. Full teams will be announced nearer the staging date but the Monarchs team will feature a couple of our young Scottish second halfers.

The pricing structure for the event will be exactly the same as for the Caledonian Riders' Championship with the adult price being £10, £8 for Seniors and Students, £3 for Children 12 - 16 and all children under 11 free. There will be a further discount for purchasing online up to the day before the event and although season tickets will not be valid season ticket holders will be offered the cheapest prices of all.

Heat sponsorships will be available giving an alcohol inclusive package for 2 for £50 and the non alcohol package for 2 will be £40. Rider sponsorships are priced at £25 which will go direct to the rider to help with racing costs.

We are particularly keen to find a meeting sponsor for £250 to help pay the riders' travel costs.
