Google translation of Sportowefalty article Three league for speedway riders in PGE Extraliga. There are other important changes! On Tuesday, authorities PGE Ekstraligi met with clubs. It was discussed for the reduction of the number of players leagues. Later they were made final decisions on the rules, which will apply next year. Jaroslaw Galewski Jaroslaw Galewski 12 October 2016 14:42 Comment on  113 WP SportoweFakty / Tomasz Jocz Since the season 2017 in PGE Extraliga will be effective limit leagues for players in accordance with the principle of 1 + 1 + 1. Each rider will be able to compete only in the Polish league, your league national (if it has one), and additionally also in a league of foreign, but on condition that it obtains from its consent to the first choice PGE Ekstraligi for superiors terms queues league in Poland . What if players do not have their national leagues? For such players the league a priority to become the league Poland, in addition to contract in the Polish PGE extraligue to treat everyone the same way, they can also choose to season rozgrywkowy two leagues abroad, but from their two foreign clubs will also have to obtain written consent for priority PGE Ekstraligi for superiors terms in Poland, which will eventually collide with the calendar of international leagues. - Season 2017 is treated as a transitional aware that recently completed the game showed that in the case of superiors matches and starts players in four or five leagues, were enormous difficulties in finding new dates to be played - says Wojciech Stępniewski, president Ekstraligi speedway. - Speedway riders will have to make choices, knowing that PGE Extraliga for them is definitely the best payer, they arouse the greatest interest of fans and television. I got feedback from many of them, Polish, as well as foreign, that limit the number of leagues is a good option and will cause a kind of a free labor market, which until now has been dominated by a limited number of players - he adds. The proposed changes, which have been positively assessed by the shareholders Ekstraligi slag during the Communication Platform in Warsaw on October 11, must still be approved by the Polish Motor Union, and then find empowerment in the Rules Sport Speedway for the 2017 season. Season 2017 will also be the status of "waiting player." It will be in every club PGE Ekstraligi only one Polish speedway (the age limit for 25-26 years - a decision does not fall), which will have to submit a declaration before the season about choosing one club from the second division. Such a player will be able to compete at the same time both in the PGE Extraliga, as well as in the second division - The provision is aimed at the development of juniors, but also speedway, who after completing 21 years of age, have developed wings and become valuable players - explains Wojciech Stępniewski and adds that the exclusion from the status of "player waiting" Nice clubs PLZ is due to the fact not to interfere with the result of the direct sports facilities PGE Ekstraligi and not lead to a situation in which clubs compete against each other to win a particular speedway rider. From next year's season at PGE Extraliga will apply the new rules receiving cinder track before the competition. From four hours before the scheduled start of the game, in a situation of optimal weather conditions, after the official reception of the track, the track can not be done any more work (with the exception of irrigation with water). - Together with GKSŻ we want to fine-tune the solution so that the organizer does not put against the wall, the Commissioner of the track or the judge regarding whether the track is safe or not, and at a time when the stands are already fans. Additional two hours will be an opportunity for the organizer to avoid a walkover when the commissioner and the judge deem as dangerous track for four hours before the competition. In the new pattern book of the track will disappear also 4-stage evaluation of the track. The situation will be a zero - the ones-either track is safe or not. Against such competition as such. SGP or SEC tracks are already ready in the morning, therefore the league can also be done earlier. Of course, we are talking about a situation where there was no match threatened because of rainfall says Thomas Wojciech Stępniewski. This is all the conclusions from the meeting of clubs PGE Ekstraligi. Details will be worked out over the next few weeks. - We also want the judge or commissioner in matters of the track, in the course of its preparation, seemed command in writing, according to the principle: "there is no letter, no command." Too much was a situation where the organizer blamed the condition of the track Commissioner claiming that the Commissioner what he ordered, in turn, the Commissioner argued that no command seemed. From now on the case will be clear - ends Stępniewski. Since the season 2017 will be introduced at the same time compulsory monitoring the weather at the stadium PGE Ekstraligi, which will be equipped with stations for monitoring weather conditions with access to the Internet. This is to eliminate conflicting opinions regarding the weather conditions at the stadium in the period preceding the competition. At the same time in the 2017 season in the Rules Sport Speedway will be a recommendation for the new portal with weather forecasts for matches:

Reading between the lines I think the giving Poland priority in fixtures could be the most important bit of these proposals- obviously there aren`t any problems with Sunday clashes. However last season we saw the most Friday and Saturday fixtures for TV there has been- and could N sport and the Extraleague be saying we would like the matches spread over the weekend all on TV - Friday`s , Saturday`s and Monday possibly along with with keeping the 2 TV matches on Sunday`s.

They don`t have one- other than 6 and 7 have to be under 21 Polish riders and there has to be 4 polish riders in the 1 to 7.

As no answer to my question has been forthcoming I thought I would try and find the answer myself- checking the ticket website interactive map it seems that a lot of the blocks are sold out which I can only deduce will mean more there than last year. I am also assuming that David Tapp and Jason Crump will be providing the commentary on the world feed. They are both doing a preview on Fox motorsport tomorrow night.

I believe now is the time for the Elite league to go for rider gradings for all the riders, and I also believe the league should be run on the Danish league system- tailored to meet GB format requirements. This is what the Danes do with their 5 man teams All riders are before the season begins assigned a category (A, B, C or D), where A is the absolute top drivers, B-riders are the riders who are just below the absolute elite C-drivers are drivers with a certain experience, while D-drivers are primarily the new Danish talents. To create exciting race lays down rules for how the team should be composed of the day. Team's total value must not exceed 24 and must be at least 19 This includes: A drivers with the value 8 B drivers with the value 6 C drivers with the value 3 D drivers with value 1. There must be max. one A rider. There must be max. be three B-riders on the team. There must be max. be three drivers who are not Danish parent club and Danish license. The team must consist of at least a D-drivers or alternatively a U21-running Danish parent club and Danish license.

Sounds like it could be a good excuse for " delays"

Janowski stays with Dackarna. Emil Sayfutdinov who has left Vetlanda is joining Piraterna- so Vetlanda say.

Anyone know how ticket sales are going ? Last year just over 26,000 was the announced attendance. Will they be happy with that sort of figure again ?? Jack Holder comes in as a reserve.
