UK's sprint school back in session

Following the success of the first season of Sprint School, the DHL sponsored schools will be returning to Newport for a second year. As well as gaining confidence and invaluable tips, techniques and advice over last season's schools, many of the youngsters have gone on to compete at the Revolution events as Future Stars and several have been selected to join the prestigious talent team.

The addition of three more Track Leagues – Carmarthen, Herne Hill, West Riding – will allow an even wider selection of young cyclists to come from across the UK to the DHL Sprint Schools at the Newport Velodrome in 2008 to meet the Stars and train with the Talent Team coaches. The list now of 18 track leagues sending in nominations also includes: Brighton, Bristol, Calshot, Cardiff, Dundee, Edinburgh, Forest Town, Halesowen, Kirkby, Manchester ACT, Manchester Friday, Newcastle-under-lyme, Newport, Reading, Scunthorpe, Solihull, Welwyn and Wolverhampton.
