William Cairns and Cooper Rushen no longer Rising Stars?


Recommended Posts

Can't believe what I'm reading. U21 British riders with spots up for grabs in Premiership but 2 most promising riders are eliminated only because they performed too good last season.

Shambles, total shambles. In Poland the only criteria is age. In UK of course everything has to be complicated. 🤮

I know, he wasn't on RS list. But now with new rules and mandatory U21 Brit in squad, why do they exclude 2 hottest prospects?

Probably to 'even out' whats left. Cooper and Will are always going to get their ride as the 'other' U21 anyway.

What beggars belief is the lack of a 'Rising Star' scheme in the Championship where both reserves really should be young Brits.

One is mandatory don't say anywhere you can't have 2 British riders u21

You can have 7 if you want. But you are missing the point. Why BSPA always tries to complicate things? Why can't both mentioned riders be used as 6/7 as long as they are U21?

Because cooper isn't a rising star and will's average is to high

Surely there has to be some kind of average based cut off, otherwise you could end up with a rider at the top of the averages whilst riding at no.7?

Nothing wrong with that as long as top 6 riders count towards points limit.
