East Newport Cycle Speedway Club travelled to Poole to race in three South West Matches, first up was the division 1 clash, and with last seasons division 1 champions Poole tracking a very strong side, there was only ever going to be one result in this fixture, with Poole running out convincing winners 119 - 61.
 
Assistant East Newport Manager Gilbert Davis said "we knew 2 weeks ago that we didn't have the side to  compete with Poole in the division one encounter, and could have quite easily tried to call this fixture off. With riders unavailable either due to work, injury, or family commitments this was one fixture we could have done without, but due to the fact that we have got plenty of riders in the club, we decided not to try and call this fixture off. We could like other South West Club's go out and get 2nd re licence riders in from other regions or even fly them in from Poland, but why should we when all your doing is leaving home grown talent out."

Then Finally it was the turn of the conference team, and this was always going to be a tough encounter trying to defeat the current league leaders who have yet to lose a fixture in this age group, but in all fairness to the East Newport team they all gave 100% effort  losing 87 - 68. Aaron Hughes topped scored for the East Enders, and was well supported by Ryan Lewis, Louis Harvey and Dan Bock.
