LEICESTER will make an early start to National Development League racing as they visit Belle Vue on Good Friday (March 29).
The Lion Cubs will go into action with a 1pm start in Manchester for what will be the first meeting to be staged in the WSRA NDL this season.
They then embark on a busy schedule of home fixtures at the Pidcock Motorcycles Arena, Beaumont Park, starting with a clash with Edinburgh on Sunday April 7 (3pm).
And that is set to be a real test for the Lion Cubs as the Monarchs Academy include two riders who have enjoyed great success in Leicester colours in recent years, as Max Perry and Connor Coles were both members of their 2022 title-winning team.
Defending champions Oxford visit Beaumont Park on Sunday June 23 with the Lion Cubs making the trip to Cowley for their final scheduled fixture on Sunday August 25.
There are no play-offs in the NDL this season, meaning the team which tops the league table will be crowned champions. The Cubs have completed the regular campaign on top of the table in three of the last four seasons.
A reminder that home NDL meetings at the Pidcock Motorcycles Arena, Beaumont Park will take place on Sunday afternoons with a 3pm start.
