Bradford Northern were a motorcycle speedway team based at Odsal in Bradford from 1970 to 1973.[1]

History

In June 1970, halfway through the Division Two season, promoters Les Whaley, Mike Parker and Bill Bridgett moved the Nelson Admirals side across the Pennines to Bradford to resurrect speedway at Odsal as Bradford Northern.

1974 saw the team name change to Bradford Barons
