Timeline

1938

Colin George Pratt (10 October 1938 – 2 October 2021) was a British motorcycle speedway rider and later promoter of the Coventry Bees who compete in the British Elite League.

He earned 14 international caps for the England national speedway team and 7 caps for the Great Britain team.

1960

After his National Service, he returned to the Rye House training track in 1960 and had his first competitive rides, reaching the final of the Whitsun Trophy.

He was signed by the Southampton Saints, where he made his National League debut against Oxford.

A broken wrist sustained at Swindon brought his debut season to an early end.

1961

He had only second-half rides for Southampton in 1961, and was loaned to Poole Pirates for whom he rode in three matches, Ipswich Witches (two matches), and then Stoke Potters where he started to score well, with paid 15 points against Wolverhampton and a 12-point maximum against Cradley Heath.

1962

In 1962 he scored 177 points from 34 matches for the Potters, and improved further in 1963, scoring 141 points in his first 12 matches and winning all five races to win the Gerry Hussey Memorial Trophy at Rye House, breaking the track record during the meeting.

1964

He moved on to the Swindon Robins before joining the Hackney Hawks in 1964.

1967

He also qualified for the final of the Speedway World Championship in 1967.

It was as a Hackney rider that he won the London Riders' Championship in 1967 and again in 1968.

1970

He rode for the Hawks for six years until the 1970 season when he moved to the Cradley Heathens.

However, he was forced to retire after he was involved in a road crash near Lokeren in Belgium.

Five riders and officials died.

Pratt was riding as a guest for the West Ham Hammers against a Danish select side in the Netherlands (in which he gained a five ride maximum).

He sustained three broken bones in his neck and was warned by doctors that if he rode again and broke it he would be paralysed.

After deciding the risk was too great he retired.

Pratt was also a full England international and rode in two World Team Cup finals.

1979

He was later the manager of the Great Britain national team from 1979 to 1980 and from 1986 to 1993.

Born in Hoddesdon, Hertfordshire, Pratt lived near to Mike Broadbank from whom he bought his first speedway bike at the age of nineteen, and practised at the nearby Rye House track.

Pratt became co-promoter at the Rye House Rockets with former boss Len Silver in 1979.

He also had two spells as the Great Britain team manager from 1979 to 1980 and with Eric Boocock from 1986 to 1993). He has won sixteen major trophies as a manager or promoter. He has served several terms on the British Speedway Promoters' Association management committee.

Pratt died on 2 October 2021, at the age of 82 from cancer.

1983

In 1983, he spent a season as team manager at King's Lynn Stars before becoming promoter at Cradley Heath in 1984.

1996

He stayed at Cradley until 1996 where he became co-promoter of the ill-fated London Lions, based at the Hawks' previous stadium, Hackney Wick.

By now it had been redeveloped and renamed the London Stadium.

The promotion closed after one season so Pratt moved to the Bradford Dukes as team manager.

1998

In 1998, the opportunity arose to join the Coventry Bees as promoter and Pratt has been there ever since in promoter/co-promoter and team manager roles.
