Diamonds85 Posted November 28 Report Share Posted November 28 Just starting this thread as there is a lot of young talent around the British Youth Championship. I'm just curious as to who is old and good enough to progress onto the NDL/whatever the format will be next season. It sounds like there's going to be a lot of places up for grabs...? Oliver Bovingdon Ollie Binns Caydin Martin Harry Fletcher Lee Harrison Who else is likely to be considered by teams, are any of these riders even old enough? I know some of them are racing 500s at Scunthorpe Amateur meetings, but I believe the age limit for that is lower than the NDL? It's so hard to find any real info on the BYC which is sad... There used to be a proper website with profiles and everything. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can ride 500s from 14 in British Youth Championship and Youth 500 class for Amateurs but need to be 15 to ride in NDL and to ride against adults in 2nd halfs and practice, usually a list of eligible riders for the year are on SCB Website but probably too early to publish it.

arnieg Posted November 28 Report Share Posted November 28 Lee Harrison, Harrison Ryan and Joe Crewe all rode in the British under 19 so should be NDL eligible. Add Billy Budd. Fairly sure Bovingdon, Binns, Martyn and Fletcher are too young. Ryan Ingram is another rider to keep an eye on , not sure of his age though.

CoffeeandTV Posted November 28 Report Share Posted November 28 Cooper Rushen turns 15 at some point next year doesn't he? Remember seeing an interview with him in which he said he'll sign for a first professional team in 2025. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he wants to try & make it as a rider, he has every right to. Same as 30 somethings Luke Crang or Jason Garrad etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
