LEICESTER have stepped in to stage the Round 5 of the Premiership Pairs next week
The meeting will take place at the Paul Chapman & Sons Arena on Tuesday October 25 (7.30pm) and will give Lions fans an early opportunity to see some top-level racers ahead of their move up next season.
All six current Premiership tracks were due to stage a round of the series, but Sheffield now require their planned date next Monday for a re-arranged league fixture against Ipswich, and have no further stadium availability at Owlerton.
The meeting has therefore been switched to Leicester on Tuesday, with the final round at Belle Vue 48 hours later.
Ipswich, who have been superbly led by former Lions star Jason Doyle, currently lead the Pairs series having won the last three rounds, and the Witches could secure the silverware in the meeting at Leicester.
