I've raised £5000 to assist with the set up of a Speedway Youth Academy in memory of Greg Mackie
Organised by Colin Mackie
On the 26th November our son Greg passed away aged 18 and Speedway was a big part of his life. For a youngster to get started in the sport it is a costly venture and involves the additional side of travelling to training tracks.
We are hoping to set the wheels in motion to set up a Speedway Academy, based in the North to assist youngsters to get a start in the sport. Giving them a knowledge in all aspects from basic paperwork to racing, from riding the bikes to fixing the bikes, all without having to spend out a lot of money at the start. To advise and assist them, in their progression from a raw novice to competition standard.
