NEW for the remainder 2008 season, Sheffield Speedway are introducing a Text Weather Service to counteract the problems that the British weather can sometimes give the sport.
By introducing this service, it enables all supporters and everyone involved with the club to have access to instant updates on a particular meeting’s weather status.
And, if a meeting is called off, supporters will receive an instant text message straight to their mobile phone, notifying them that the meeting has been cancelled.
The service is available for everyone and all supporters have to do is text “STIGERS WEATHER” to 86248 (texts cost 25 pence only and your standard network charge).
They will then receive a text back informing them of the meeting’s status.
If the meeting is on at the time of text, but called off at a later time, they will then automatically receive a text notifying them that the meeting has subsequently been cancelled.
