I GOT THIS EMAIL TONIGHT
Due to the cancelled double header at Bournemouth last weekend, the first of two replacement nationals have been set. Peterborough national will now host rounds 3 and 4. Round 3 will take place from Saturday afternoon and in to the evening. This means that the practice schedule will move forward 3 hours. Sunday's schedule will remain the same.
The 2nd replacement round is yet to be secured, but the initial intention is to stick to the existing calendar of weekends. The option of putting on a replacement event on a new weekend is possible, but not without upsetting another region's calendar. Due to the proposed "Autumn National Series" and clashes, keeping to the existing announced weekends was considered to be the favoured option by the majority.
Thanks to Peterborough Phantoms for stepping up and enthusiastically offering their services. Thanks also to the officials team, Bolsover support truck team and the medics for changing plans at late notice. For those not used to Euro style double weekends on long tracks, I suggest you get to bed early on Friday and Saturday, keep off the pop and go easy in practice.
My apologies to anyone inconvenienced by the new schedule.
