NO idea ... but no doubt someone on here will be able to answer. If not, will enquire.

express permission of the SCB, which is given or withheld at its sole discretion.

​Looking back, in the 1940s top speedway rider Jack Parker was refused permission to be promoter at Coventry.Guess what? The promotion was then taken over by MRS Jack Parker!!!

No-one has raced while a promoter since the British League era began in 1965

Eric Boothroyd rode for Halifax and promoted at Middlesbrough in 1966. Cyril Crane was co-promoter at King's Lynn in 1966 and rode in several meetings for the Stars that year. Oxford co-promoter Danny Dunton also made one appearance for the Cheetahs in 1965. Maurice McDermott rode for Exeter and Oxford in 1965 and was promoter at Rayleigh that year. Tommy Sweetman appeared for Wolverhampton and co-promoted at Rye House in 1965.
