Leeds Lions are a defunct British motorcycle speedway team who were based at Fullerton Park Sports Stadium at Elland Road in Leeds, England.[1]

History

Leeds Lions operated between 1928 and 1938. League racing first took place in 1929 with the formation of the English Dirt Track League, effectively a Northern League, which ran alongside the Southern League. Leeds were champions of the English Dirt Track League in 1929, the title being awarded to them when White City (Manchester) failed to end the season [2]
