It is back to Championship action for Edinburgh Monarchs on Wednesday night as they make the trip to Cowley to take on the Oxford Cheetahs in their opening away league fixture of the season.

After a very long afternoon at Leicester Jordy Loftus smoothly moved through the semi-final stage of the British Under-21 Championship, securing second place with 14 points behind the Scunthorpe sensation Ryan Ingram.

After a successful couple of days for the powerful Monarchs Academy team, we turn today to an individual event which is important to the Academy no. 1 and Monarchs no. 7 Jordy Loftus. He competes this afternoon at Leicester in the British Under-21 semi-final looking to gain one of the 8 places for the British Final coming up at Redcar on 7th June.

Edinburgh Monarchs Academy put in another dominant display to complete a quick fire double over Middlesbrough as they ran out 18 point victors on Teeside in a match they were never headed.
