Riding mainly in the Midland Development League to date, Connor will be embarking on his fifth season of racing and will be fulfilling his wish for National League action.
Chad says the Warriors management have been brilliant and that "being offered a chance to go straight into the main team at reserve is a dream come true".
Reigning National League Riders Champion Ben Morley has given Island speedway fans a massive pre-Christmas boost with news that he will be back to ride for the 'Wightlink' Warriors in 2019.
The Warriors will now accelerate their 2019 planning as they recruit the Warrior team, continue to develop the Wizards and build on the success of ‘My First Skid’.
The judges were so impressed by the way in which the Isle of Wight speedway team had built on past achievements to become recognised and established as one of the key community hubs for both old and young alike.
Two Wightlink Warriors speedway riders dominated the top two places at the most important individual speedway meeting of the season for National League riders on Sunday afternoon.
The races promise to be a great night of speedway, fun and frolics with the gates opening at 5.30pm, pre-meeting demonstration races from 6.15, rider parade at 6.45pm ahead of the first race at 7pm.
There was no lack of effort from the Wightlink Wizards, but the Kent Kestrels ran out rightful winners leaving the Wizards to regroup ahead of their final home SDL match.
The Warriors' co-promoter Barry Bishop said it was a super speedway meeting full of good racing from everyone, spiced with a little controversy, but another disappointing home reversal.
