Official Release
Speedway Sedans Australia wishes to advise that the 2020/2021 SSA National Titles have all been postponed due to the ongoing uncertainty surrounding COVID-19 restrictions around the country at present.
With no definitive timetable with regards to the easing of all borders, crowds and additional imposed restrictions in different jurisdictions, Speedway Sedans Australia in conjunction with the host venues of this season’s National Titles have decided to postpone the hosting of those events until the 2021/2022 season.
CEO of Speedway Sedans Australia Greg Lynd explains, “It is with regret that the SSA has had to make the unfortunate decision to postpone all five of our National Titles until the 2021/2022 season”.
“With border restrictions and social distancing requirements continuing to be an ongoing feature of everyday life in Australia at present due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, as an organisation we believe it is in everyone’s best interests to not push forward with our five National Titles for this season” Lynd continued.
“The greatest of opportunities must be available for all competitors, spectators and those respective venues in attending and hosting a National Title, with the current situations and what potentially and hypothetically lies ahead has indeed cast the biggest shadow for all involved and across the success of all National Titles”.
“In light of this decision we can announce that the host venues for the 2020/2021 season will be moved into the following year with the dates for those National Titles to be confirmed in consultation with all relevant parties” Lynd concluded.
Speedway Sedans Australia would sincerely like to thank the five venues who will host SSA National Titles in the 2021/2022 season for working with our organisation for the betterment of the entire sport.
We thank all our competitors across our six National Classes for their patience, understanding and co-operation as we continue to navigate these unprecedented times together.
