The Astley & Tyldesley / CWTS Ltd cycle speedway team were in action at
Stockport on Sunday. "Team Green" lined up in Round 4 of the Northern
Fours League and put in a great display to take 2nd place out of the 6
teams racing on the day. Danny Hughes won three of his five races,
taking a second place and a fall in his other races, to jointly top
score for A&T with 16 points out of a possible 20. He was joined by
Reece Pollitt, who once again underlined his great potential, with a
good display, taking a win and four second places. Paul Graham won his
opening two races, followed by two second places, before giving up his
last ride in favour of Roy Heslop. Mark Graham scored four valuable
third places, as well as picking up an exclusion for crossing the inside
edge. Stockport ran out convincing winners, to maintain their 100%
record in this league, but A&T have now moved up to third place in the
table.

There were low turn outs in all the categories of Round 4 of the
Northern Junior League, as A&T suffered their first defeat of the
campaign. Reece Pollitt was unbeaten after a first race slip on a wet
start line, to score 15 points in the u-16s event. A&T's four veterans
piled up the points in the Combination category, to ensure that A&T
finished 2nd on the day and maintain a realistic chance of winning the
Northern Junior League, in first place with two rounds remaining.
