LEICESTER have moved to avoid a fixture backlog by adding new dates to their schedule – and it means a bumper month ahead!
Fans are urged to make a careful note of the dates as they have moved away from some Saturday dates in order to keep on track.
The high-flying Watling JCB Lions will now face Edinburgh at the Paul Chapman and Sons Arena on Wednesday July 17.
They are in Friday night action this weekend when Eastbourne visit in the second leg of their Knockout Cup tie with British legend Chris ‘Bomber’ Harris lined up as a guest for Richie Worrall – and they face Berwick on Sunday July 14 (4pm).
The National League side, Leicester Lion Cubs, have two Tuesday dates on July 23 against Plymouth and July 30 against Isle of Wight – both at 7.30.
Boss Stewart Dickson said: “A combination of circumstances mean we have been forced to arrange meetings away from our regular Saturday night raceday.
“It means a busy July and a great opportunity for fans to see plenty of racing throughout the month.
“When we get into August we’ll start to see more Saturday meetings again.”
The club would urge fans to keep checking the club website if they have any doubt about fixture dates and their social media channels are updated regularly every day with information.
