(Ipswich win SE 2 League )

After the SE1 drama all eyes set upon the Se2 match with the Ipswich side knowing one more win would clinch the SE2 title. With five of the riders already having ridden in the first match the pressure was on for this young team who normally show no fear and so it turned out to be with another power display of team riding with every rider chipping in winning nine out of sixteen heats on offer. This not only clinched the League but also extends their unbeaten run from June 2009 .

On a personal note team manager Tony Stant would like to thank everyone who has been involved in securing a second title and would thank all the riders for a well deserved title with their perfessional attitude all season. Ipswich travel to Kesgrave for their final match now looking to keep their unbeaten run intact and another test of character .

Ipswich SE 1 team also one remaining fixture at home to local rivals Great Blakenham and victory would give them the title so come on down on Wednesday 19th October and give the team full support and cheer them on.
