New officials for East Newport CSC

 

The East Newport Club recently received the fantastic news that two of their more experienced club-men have been A Graded as referees for 2008.

 

Rob Absalom not only a great worker behind the scenes has now had his refereeing talents recognised & after  some excellent displays at both National & Premier league level in 2007 has been graded A National, the second highest grading that can be achieved in Cycle Speedway.

 

Rob now joins Ian Sizer on the elite list. Ian after some solid performances in 2007 has now reached grade A International, the highest grading in Cycle Speedway.

 

Further excellent news came when Chairman Richard Hughes ungraded in 2007 starts the new season as a grade B referee, a superb achievement by Richard as he only took up the job a couple of seasons ago, recognition of his undoubted talent.

 

Overall the achievements are outstanding & possibly the first by a Newport based Club. East  Newport may not be the richest club in Wales, but are the richest by far with their outstanding officials.

 

Congratulations to all three officials & may they all enjoy a successful 2008.
