Become an Official

Speedway Australia are proud to host a national training program for Official’s accreditation. In conjunction with divisional bodies, we’ve set a national standard of knowledge and skill sets required for Stewards and Scrutineers across every class of racing.

This interactive online programme covers all aspects of Speedway Officiating; including the fundamentals of being an official, health and safety, Speedway racing rules, and on-track scenarios.

The program allows for self-paced learning on your PC, mobile, or tablet from the comfort of your own home.
