Březolupy Speedway is the motorcycle speedway club known as Autoklub Březolupy and the track known as the Plochá dráha Březolupy, which hosts the club. The track is located in the centre of Březolupy in the Czech Republic, off the Březolupy 497. The track surrounds a football pitch.[1][2]
History
The speedway track and football pitch
During the 1950s a group of motor enthusiasts built a motocross circuit approximately three kilometres south of the village of Březolup but because only one meeting per year was held they wanted something more regular. The residents chose the center of the village for a speedway track and constructed it during the early 1960s before opening on 16 July 1961.[3]
After the dissolution, the team participated in the Czech Republic Team Speedway Championship, enjoying their best period of success, gaining various sponsors such as Barum, Mitas and Z-Group and securing one silver medal in 1996 and three bronze medals in 1995, 1997 and 1999 respectively.[5][6]
In 2016, the team merged for the season with the team PK Plzeň from Plzeň.
