The Wightlink Warriors are delighted to add 24 year old Jacob Clouting to the 2024 team. Jacob who is now in his seventh year of team speedway and joins the Wightlink Warriors on the back of a great season in 2023.
Wightlink Warriors Team Manger Steve Piper said “Jacob, who was one of our early captures for this season, really impressed me last season. He is a talent speedway bike rider and showed it when riding against us.
I have wanted to have Jacob in our side for a while now and was delighted when he agreed to ride for the Wightlink Warriors in 2024. For sure, he is a solid heat leader and I am really looking forward to working with him. I am sure that our brilliant supporters will enjoy seeing him race as a Wightlink Warrior.
Jacob added “I’m definitely looking forward to getting back over to the Isle of Wight and this time riding for the Island instead of against them. It’s been a hard start to the year for me in the national league, with only 10 meetings this year and very little bike time. So I’m hoping that racing for the Isle of Wight will help me get things back on track and help the club get some silverware.”
The Wightlink Warriors' season starts on June 27th when the Warriors take on the Cradley Heathens in the first leg of the Vince Mapley Memorial Trophy.
