Stellar Monarchs Academy had to work hard against a solid and determined Middlesbrough team, but led all the way from heat 2 to the end to secure the points with a 48-42 win. They top the table as it is the first match to be run in the National Development League this season!

The Stellar Monarchs put in a dogged display to take victory 46-44 at Ashfield on Friday night albeit falling just short of securing the Scottish Cup on aggregate in a display that gives hope for the season ahead.

While the senior team faces a testing trip to Ashfield on Friday evening for the second leg of the Scottish Cup, The Monarchs Academy riders will be preparing to get their season under way with a home match at Armadale in the National Development League on Saturday at 7pm, racing against Middlesbrough Tigers.

A very big crowd packed the terraces to welcome the new speedway season at Armadale Stadium last Friday as Stellar Monarchs took on Glasgow Tigers.

Glasgow's Chris Harris rounded off the Championship's 'Big Weekend' at Scunthorpe on Sunday afternoon taking top spot on the podium ahead of teammate Kyle Howarth and home number one Steve Worrall who was best qualifier throughout.

Redcar Bears made it back to back Championship Pairs victories as they defeated Poole in a dramatic final at Workington on an afternoon where the Monarchs were never in contention.

The Championship 'Big Weekend' starts at Workington on Saturday afternoon as the SGB Championship Pairs 2025 winners will be decided.

It was bitterly cold at Armadale for the opening of the Scottish Speedway season, indeed the first match in the UK in 2025 at Championship level. Everyone would be grateful that the match went smoothly and was completed in under 90 minutes.

Excitement is building ahead of the start of the 2025 speedway season with a big crowd anticipated for an intriguing Scottish Cup opening clash on Friday.

Monarchs are delighted to confirm the continuation of Stellar Omada as Title Partner of the Club for the 2025 season.
