The first of the Midland Area Championship events at Ogston SC kicks off this weeknd

After a year which has seen Midlands Fireballers competing across Europe the crews are now looking forward to competing on their home turf. The local circuit which suffered some disruption due to the Foot and Mouth crisis kicks off with the first of the Midland Area Championship events at Ogston this weekend and finishes in early November at Northampton.

The fleet which contains a number of world, European and national championship winners, is looking forward to taking on all-comers:

Event dates

  • Ogston SC – 2 September

  • Notts County SC – 8-9 September

  • Staunton Harold SC – 23 September

  • Draycote Water SC – 29-30 September

  • Chelmarsh SC – October 6-7

  • Rutland Water SC – October 20-21

  • Northampton SC – October 3-4

With local fleets going from strength to strength, the regions teams are keen to encourage more Fireballers to come and play on the circuit, with some events seeing superb prizes across the fleet thanks to Super Series sponsors Typhoon there’s even more opportunity to get in the chocolates and go home smiling.
