Good luck to Anders Rowe after signing for Polish second division side Metalika Recykling Kolejarza Rawicz, hopefully racing over there will make him a better rider come the 2021 season.

He makes his debut for them this weekend. Will be interesting to see how he goes.

Tough going for Anders on his debut in Poland. He scored 1 point from 4 rides as his team were absolutely hammered. Jaimon Lidsey top scored for Rawicz with 12 and nearly scored half of their points.

It’s a big step up in Poland, even in the 3rd tier, so the experience will only benefit Anders and hopefully he gets a few more opportunities out there.

It appears he has been signed on a three year deal by Lezsno and loaned out to a lower league club.

Rawicz is associated with leszno somehow... dunno if they're the official Youth team or if they're a feeder type club but they are certainly associated with each other

That is correct - that is why Lidsey and Slauderbach (spelling?) the junior at Leszno also rides for Rawicz. Not to mention, Damian Balinski whose been a long term servant at Leszno.

Szymon Szlauderbach

Krzysztof Sadurski

Kacper Pludra

Tymoteusz Picz

All riders who this season are riding for both teams, there's definitely a connection there, just didn't know if it was an official connection?

Also are Lodz and Leszno connected somehow? As Adam Skornicki I believe is involved with both and Brady Kurtz has now signed for Lodz, just curious

As far as I’m aware there is between Leszno and Rawicz and that’s been running for a little while and Rawicz is seen as a feeder club.

I’m not sure about Łódź though, other than Skornicki is a useless team manager!

good to see speedway how it should be . in a field , grass banking and all the things you need for a good nights entertainment . all tracks should be like this . forget the NSS . its a concrete jungle . you dont need bling stadiums and all that other stuff . just good honest racing as this one was . i wish this track was closer , (200 miles closer at least ! ) 

AR looked class , as did all the cornets team on this vid . maybe have to become a southern softie !

missing our team and friends gained through the speedway  connection . 

thanks for the vid and it was good to see a quite recent meeting  instead of the usual vintage dross served up by some northern clubs . good quality picture and non of the betamax style coverage lol. . 

thanks .. J

It's a credit to those who built it.

However, go to a big meeting like the CL Pairs, stand on the grass banking, in the dark like a sardine, with barely any extra toilet or catering facilities and it's horrific.

It's quite frightening on that grass when it gets damp and little or no public lighting.

It's great for their normal crowds up to high hundreds, even then lack of toilets and catering can be an issue.

Not suitable for big Events without massive increase in portaloos and catering.
