Spires boss wants to repay faith shown by fans
PETER Schroeck wants to repay the faith shown by the fans when Oxford Spires welcome Sheffield Tigers in the Premiership this evening. Spires began May with a double victory over Birmingham Brummies, but then lost at home to Belle Vue Aces last week. Peter Kildemand top-scored for Spires with 9+1, and has gained a new average. He will drop to reserve, while Craig Cook moves up to No 2, with Erik Riss at No 3 and Charles Wright at No 5. READ ALSO: New averages mean changed line-up for Spires Spires team manager Schroeck said: 'One of the positives from last week was the form shown by Peter Kildemand, leading our scoring last week along with the ever-reliable Charles Wright. 'Peter will move to reserve against Sheffield, and just like Craig Cook, he has the experience to score well from No 6 and give us that extra strength at reserve. 'As for the meeting against Sheffield, we do need to make up for last week's defeat to Belle Vue. 'We're doing our best to stay positive and a win would lift the spirits of everyone in the Spires camp and also get us back on target to making sure we are winning at home. 'I thank our fans for their patience and continued support. There's a lot we can be proud about at our club, and our supporters are a big part of that. We'd love nothing more than to repay their faith with a victory over Sheffield.'

New averages mean changed line-up for Spires
OXFORD Spires will boast a changed line-up tomorrow, with new averages coming into force, when they take on the Sheffield Tigers, tapes up at 7:30pm, writes Leon Foster-Hill. Craig Cook will ride at number two, partnering Maciej Janowski, whilst Peter Kildemand moves to the reserve position. Kildemand put in his best performance of the season against Belle Vue last week and could be a real trump card in the reserve berth where he can replace any rider. Mr Consistent, Charles Wright, moves to the tough number five berth with Erik Riss partnering Rohan Tungate at three and four. READ ALSO: The latest Aunt Sally results from Oxford league The Spires will need to be at their absolute best with the Sheffield Tigers putting in some impressive performances this year and being the first team to defeat Ipswich Witches this season, last Thursday at Owlerton. Jack Holder is in a rich vein of form having just won the Polish Grand Prix and the team also boasts previous Cheetah and Spire Lewis Kerr. Oxford remain in fifth place, one point ahead of King's Lynn Stars, so a win is vital to keep their push for the play-offs on course. Oxford Spires: Maciej Janowski, Craig Cook, Erik Riss, Rohan Tungate, Charles Wright, Peter Kildemand, Luke Killeen. Sheffield Tigers: Jack Holder, Anders Rowe, Josh Pickering, Justin Sedgmen, Chris Holder, Lewis Kerr, Leon Flint. CLICK HERE TO SUBSCRIBE TO THE OXFORD MAIL ONLINE (Image: Newsquest) The Oxford Cheetahs look to make their second semi-final of the year when they travel to Scunthorpe on Friday night in the second leg of the Knockout Cup. Oxford have a healthy 20-point advantage from their home leg and the Scorpions have only managed one win so far this season, making the Cheetahs favourite to progress. They go into the meeting with a slightly new look as Dan Gilkes has been sidelined with a nasty knee injury, which has allowed the Oxford management to give Latvian Francis Gusts another outing, albeit in the Championship rather than the Premiership. Oxford team manager Peter Schroeck said: 'We are gutted for Dan and our fans who took him to their hearts with his 100 per cent commitment on track and we wish him a speedy recovery. This does give Francis a further opportunity to establish himself in British Speedway.' Gusts will ride at number four, partnering Cameron Heeps, whilst Jordan Jenkins will take the number five position. The Oxford Chargers have their second home meeting on Sunday when they face the Edinburgh Academy, tapes up at 3pm. Edinburgh top the National League with two wins out of two. Oxford Chargers: Jody Scott, Jacob Clouting, Arran Butcher, Ashton Vale, Darryl Ritchings, Max Broadhurst, Senna Summers. Edinburgh Academy: Connor Coles, Kyran Lyden, Matt Marson, Sam McGurk, Dayle Wood, Mark Parker, Lee Harrison.

No final fling for Edinburgh Monarchs at Shielfield Park
It's becoming a familiar narrative for the Edinburgh Monarchs so far in 2025. Sign up to our daily newsletter Sign up Thank you for signing up! Did you know with a Digital Subscription to Edinburgh News, you can get unlimited access to the website including our premium content, as well as benefiting from fewer ads, loyalty rewards and much more. Learn More Sorry, there seem to be some issues. Please try again later. Submitting... Four meetings in, four last-heat deciders, but only a solitary victory for their efforts. Oskar Polis (yellow), Craig Cook (blue) and Peter Kildemand (red), are away from the tapes in heat 13. Picture: Jack Cupido The Monarchs were pipped to the post by old foes the Glasgow Tigers 46-44 in their BSN Series opener on Friday at Armadale. Fast forward 24 hours and this time it was the Berwick Bandits who were dishing the dirt in the final four laps at Shielfield Park on Saturday night. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad This was a makeshift Capital septet, however, with four guests used to cover the absent Victor Palovaara, Jonatan Grahn, Paco Castagna and Max James, the latter having recently announced he is taking time out of the sport. Meanwhile, the remaining trio were representing their countries at a European pairs event in Slovenia. Jye Etheridge slotted in at reserve and did a fine job scoring 12 from his six rides. On paper this looked like a routine home win, but Monarchs, led by Polish sensation Oskar Polis, proved a formidable force throughout, this in light of No.1 Justin Sedgmen forced to withdraw after his third race due to a hand injury. Ex-Monarch Craig Cook and team-mate Drew Kemp stormed to a heat 15 5-1 to ensure the points stayed in Northumberland but Monarchs put up more than a fight. Co-promoter Alex Harkess said afterwards: "If it wasn't for the fact that Justin Sedgmen was struggling badly with his injury on what is a demanding track, I'm sure we would have won this match. I felt we did extremely well in the circumstances."

The Brain & Performance Centre Raises Autism Awareness with Everest Base Camp Trek Initiative
In honour of Autism Awareness Month, Dubai-based Brain & Performance Centre — a DP World company — is embarking on an extraordinary mission to shine a spotlight on Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Backed by a powerful message of resilience and inclusion, the centre is supporting a high-profile Everest Base Camp trek led by famed British adventurer and former UK Special Forces operator, Ant Middleton. The awareness initiative, launched this April, unites local and global organisations to promote evidence-based, multidisciplinary support for children facing cognitive and physical developmental challenges in the UAE. A team from The Brain & Performance Centre will participate in the expedition, with the experience being documented and shared across media platforms to extend the reach of the campaign. 'Every child deserves the opportunity to reach their full potential,' said Dr. Craig Cook, CEO of The Brain & Performance Centre. 'Through this campaign, we're raising awareness and mobilising support for children with autism and their families.' Ant Middleton, who is leading the trek, described the mission as a symbol of the strength shown by children and families affected by ASD: 'Trekking to Everest Base Camp is a powerful metaphor for their daily battles and triumphs. It's an honour to support such an important cause.' 💡 Advancing Autism Care in the UAE At the heart of the initiative is The Brain & Performance Centre's pioneering youth treatment programme, designed using internationally recognised medical research. The programme, exclusive to Dubai, supports children with autism, cerebral palsy, traumatic brain injuries, and other developmental challenges. The treatment model incorporates hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), tailored cognitive and physical training, and nutritional planning — offering children improved mobility, cognitive function, and quality of life. Before enrolment, every child undergoes a comprehensive medical assessment, and only those deemed likely to benefit are admitted. This ensures each child receives the best possible chance at progress, while maintaining the highest standards of ethics, privacy, and regulatory compliance. 🎗️ How You Can Support A dedicated fundraising campaign is currently underway to assist families in accessing treatment. Contributions can directly support the care of children with ASD in the UAE. Interested donors and supporters can contact: Dr. Craig Cook CEO, The Brain & Performance Centre 📧 craig@ As the team treks to Everest Base Camp, the mission is clear: to raise voices, inspire change, and help children with autism thrive. Through determination, innovation, and community support, The Brain & Performance Centre is scaling new heights — both literally and figuratively — in the pursuit of inclusive healthcare.
