Liberec Speedway is the motorcycle speedway club known as Plochá dráha klub v AČR Liberec and the Pavlovický Stadion, which hosts the club. The stadium is located in the northern outskirts of Liberec in the Czech Republic, off the Letná 618.[1]
History
[edit | edit source]The Pavlovický Stadion was built in 1930.[2]
The team have had a sporadic existence, first competing in the Czechoslovak Team Speedway Championship as Liaz Liberec in 1970.[3] Liaz (LIberecké Automobilové Závody) was a manufacturer of trucks. Over the next two decades a team from Liberec would not compete every year but AMK Liberec won the 1.Liga in 1990 before the Dissolution of Czechoslovakia.[3]
Then participating in the Czech Republic Team Speedway Championship, teams known as GRS Liberec, SK Kaltina Liberec and GRSBM Liberec (all due to various sponsorships) represented Liberec.[4]
The most important event that was run at the stadium was the semi-final of the Under-21 World Championship in 2019.[5]
Also in 2021, the team now known as Aforti Start Gniezno Liberec (due to a collaboration between the club and the Polish team Start Gniezno) won the silver medal in the Czech Republic Team Championship.[6]
