REBUILDING for the Conference League is set to begin in earnest for Weymouth Wildcats - on and off the track - after receiving the go ahead from West Dorset District Council's planning committee.
The "inconsistent" Radipole Lane track is set to be ripped up, to be re-laid by director Jeremy Dickon's construction firm, JMD Groundworks, and the club are set to add to their riding contingent for 2007.
Wildcats' chairman Phil Bartlett plans to put together a young squad which can be highly competitive in the Conference League and is in talks with several riders.
He hopes to add some new faces to the squad for the forthcoming season soon but he was not prepared to name names.
"There is a great deal of planning being done behind the scenes," said Bartlett, "although we will have to wait until after Christmas when the official gradings are announced to complete the team line-up. I am sure that when the team is announced all Wildcats' supporters will be very excited."
