PREMIERSHIP TITLE WINNER ADAM ELLIS HAS SIGNED FOR SHEFFIELD TIGERS Ellis, who won the league with Swindon in 2019, has been on the market since the Robins announced they would be sitting out 2021 due to stadium development. The Great Britain international is highly rated and will combine his Tru Plant Tigers duties with racing in Poland and Sweden. And he’s revealed how he has always wanted to race for Sheffield following previous visits in the opposing camp. “I’m really excited to have signed for Sheffield this season,” he said. “It’s a club I’ve wanted to race for for a few years now and I want to thank Marc and Damien Bates and Simon Stead for having me on board in 2021.” Ellis is encouraged by the improving situation regarding the pandemic in the UK with the season set to start on May 17. He said: “The news coming from the UK looks really positive at the moment, so fingers crossed we can get
the season started in May with fans on the terraces.” Ellis isn’t quite ready to start practice for the new season, which under normal circumstances would be starting this month. “As we won’t be starting until May I’ll wait until April to get out on the bike,” he said. “I’m keeping busy doing some work on the house but I’m really looking forward to getting out there. “It’s still a worrying time for the sport worldwide but Britain and the vaccine seems to be in a much better place. I can’t wait to catch up with the boys at Sheffield and go racing.” Ellis is the second Swindon rider to make the switch to South Yorkshire as he joins Aussie ace Troy Batchelor. Other confirmed signings are Kyle Howarth, Jack Holder and Josh Bates with two remaining places to be confirmed
