Birmingham will host the second British Under-21 Semi-Final at Perry Barr next Wednesday (April 18).
The Brummies have been handed the event after the initially-planned staging at Newcastle last weekend was postponed, and the meeting will determine the remaining seven qualifiers for the Final at Berwick.
Brummies co-promoter David Mason said: “When we found out Newcastle were struggling to re-stage the second semi-final, we applied to have it at Perry Barr.
“A few other clubs had gone for it as well, but we were delighted when we received the call to say they wanted us to host it.
“It has lifted our spirits because it hasn’t been an easy few weeks with all the rain-offs.
“But to now be hosting such a great competition, with such an impressive line-up is great for Birmingham Speedway and fingers crossed we’ll see a good number of fans on the terraces cheering on their riders.”
